0.5 sec is 500 milliseconds. ntpd should have no problem keeping your
remote servers within that offset.
One way to do this is add all of your remote NTP servers to your
reference NTP server as 'noselect' servers. e.g.:
server remote_NTP_server noselect
You will need one of those lines for each of your remote NTP servers.
Then you will be able to use the ntpq peers billboard ('ntpq -p') to
view all the offsets between your remote NTP servers and your reference
NTP server.
