If that is good enough for you, then the problem is solved. On my own
LAN, where I wanted to improve the performance of the Windows-based NTP
clients, I reduced the poll interval in the ntp.conf:
server ntpgmtaceb iburst maxpoll 5
This will make the client contact the server once every 32 seconds (2^^5),
but that's no great load on either server, LAN or client. The "iburst"
will speed up the initial sync.
Cheers,
David
