Chad is probably running CentOS 5 or similar. For some reason, when you configure the time using the Gnome GUI, it always inserts that LOCAL refclock (and some other stuff like restrict lines). Even if you manually edit your ntp.conf, if you change anything via that GUI, the LOCAL refclock will return. -- Kenyon Ralph
