I am not sure about recent ntpd versions,
but they were originally only designed for permanent connections.

I use chronyd, which was designed to keep track when machines are offline.

One problem with RH7.3 is that one needs to remove the
command 'hwclock --systohc' from /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt
otherwise it gets really confused.
