Hi Nikolaus !

... attached is a patch to add the command line option -I
(bind server to specific interface) to the busybox ntpd.

As a suggestion: Can't we just extend the -l (lowercase letter L) option for this purpose? If -l is given without further information, ntpd bind to all interfaces (the default address), else ntpd binds to the given Interface/Address. This way we do not introduce a new option.

The help text of -l would be "-l [INTERFACE] listen on port 123 of given INTERFACE (default all Interfaces)".
