This configuration makes absolutely no sense. maxpoll should never be used unless you really understand what it's used for and you have a very specific reason for doing so. Otherwise it should never be used. The drift file is optional and goes there anyway by default If you enable authentication you need to set up keys or you will never be able receive packets. You use restrict statements to restrict what others can do. Look at the configuration information in the Support section: https://ntp.isc.org/private/bin/view/Support/WebHome for simple configurations. Please do not give advice on something you do not understand.
