[ntp:questions] Synchronization gets lost when disconnected

Hi there,
I run NTP on a dialup router in order to provide my clients with the
current time. In my /etc/ntp.conf I have
server ###IP of external time server one### iburst prefer
server ###IP of external time server one### iburst prefer
server 127.127.1.0 iburst
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 13
As this is a dialup router, sometimes the connection gets lost. In
order to prevent startup errors (name resolution), I already have
entered the IP of the external time server, not it's host name.
However, after the connection drops for a while, I get
sendto(###IP###): Invalid argument
until I restart the NTP server. Do you have any ideas on how to omit
that other than to manually stop and restart NTP at each dialup?
Thanks
Florian
