Thanks to everyone for their replies.

The ntp daemon should be running all the time. There is no need or reason to 
ever stop and start it, as it's always working.

Sure, but the original situation was that the daemon was NOT able to keep time in sync, and that the ntp restart DID fix it temporarily. Following from the various updates and configuration changes made yesterday, ntp is now able to do it's job. I'm happy . . .
