This seems a lot simpler than the method described in the docs:

  http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/ConfiguringNTP#Section_6.13.

which talk about "crypto directory" and "autokey", and seem (to me) a lot 
more complicated than just copying a renamed file and restarting ntpd!

There is also the remark: "If the top level NTP server is unable to obtain 
the leap second file automatically...".  Does this mean that NTP will try 
and fetch this file by itself?

Some clarification would be appreciated.
