I see "73.78.73.84" as the refid for the local clock on one of my
machines (running Fedora Core 4 Linux, if that helps), and I can't figure
out where it gets that from, nor what it means.

73 is the ASCII code for "I", 78 is "N", another 73 "I" and finally 84 stands for "T"... therefore 73.78.73.84 is "INIT"... there was a bug in certain versions of NTP where the refid of the LOCALCLK driver was not set correctly. If you really care about that, you can fudge the refid to something else. IIRC it was only a display problem and had no other drawbacks..

Kind regards,
