Yeah. The monitoring node is in Los Angeles, California. 

Dan, I'm new to NTP myself but isn't there a way to set a limit on clients 
and/or rate limit in the conf file?

Otherwise, I'm pretty sure that the UNIX kernel (ref mentioned trying chrony 
which is a UNIX ntpd) shouldn't be an issue though I could be very wrong.

Chrony does support NTPv4 so that might be the way to go in his case although 
support from this list might not be as feasible if even possible.
