Just my personal opinion here; but don't do that. Use an NTP server, rather than a router. Then you can avoid all kinds of devices hitting the control plane of your routers for time sync.

I'm at a loss to explain why the 6500 would accept an unsolicited peer
(assuming the Windows host was mistakenly trying to setup a peer rather
than client/server relationship), let alone let it override the
established external trust.

Ah, this old chestnut!

You need:

ntp access-group peer <x>

In essence - yes, IOS will establish peer relationships with random hosts unless you ACL it off. Yes that is crazy.
