Hi Marc,

according to discussions on debian-devel, Debian is kind of planning to
move away from src:ntp as NTP server implementation. chrony is among the
candidates to be a replacement, and it already has significant coverage
since it's installed in the Debian Cloud images.
However, chrony doesn't support ntp mode 6, and thus check_ntp_peer does
not work with chrony servers. It would be lovely if there would be a
plugin that allows remote monitoring of a chrony server.
looking at
https://www.mail-archive.com/chrony-users@chrony.tuxfamily.org/msg01506.html
seems not to indicate, that there might be an easy solution for the
problem you mentioned.
There is an open github issue upstream since 2018, so it seems unlikely
that upstream will provide such a plugin in the near future. Reference:
https://github.com/monitoring-plugins/monitoring-plugins/issues/1526
If upstream might not handle this, what do you expact from the
monitoring-plugins maintainers? Feel free to push things forward
upstream, for example providing patches there.
In the meantime, if there is another plugin which can handle this, feel
free to request to add it to nagios-plugin-contrib?
Cheers, Jan.
