This is a known bug in NTP: https://ntp.isc.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=514 which has been fixed in the current repository, so the NTP version shipped with the next installer version will work again as expected. I'm not quite sure, but AFAIR the buggy version should work correctly if you fudge the stratum of the local clock to 0, i.e. your ntp.conf file should contain the following lines: server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 0 Please keep in mind that this configuration should only be used in a closed network environment.
