This works with the ntp I have on a 6.2 install. I don't think formats have
changed yet....

# Undisciplined Local Clock. This is a fake driver intended for backup
# and when no outside source of synchronized time is available. The
# default stratum is usually 3, but in this case we elect to use stratum
# 0. Since the server line does not have the prefer keyword, this driver
# is never used for synchronization, unless no other other
# synchronization source is available. In case the local host is
# controlled by some external source, such as an external oscillator or
# another protocol, the prefer keyword would cause the local host to
# disregard all other synchronization sources, unless the kernel
# modifications are in use and declare an unsynchronized condition.

Fill in the obviously obscured IDs near the top above. Be sure if the
machines you select ask for a note from you that you send it. It's a
politeness thing.
(My firewall does the "restricting" on ntp. It only passes the sites I use as
peers.)
