Check your /var/log/audit/audit.log - this looks like apparmor may be
getting in the way. You may be able to update the profile by running 'aa-genprof <ntpd-binary>'

OK, I'm running a vanilla kernel without apparmor, selinux enabled and the apparmor panel says apparmor is disabled, so it's puzzling. At one stage I did look around for apparmor patches, but none could be found.
