Poll interval is at 128. It's been trying for some time, and already
backing off.

Your paranoia is slipping. The default state is closed, then if
somebody comes asking you open a port... maybe.

My firewall has a port 123 hole for the secondary server _only_
(which doesn't even use it, incidentally). The other hosts can
get time from the firewall and its slave. I'm certainly not
letting through NTP traffic for them.
