Alright, I just reread your message and noticed that you're installing
*ndtpd* rather than *ntpd*, which appear to be completely different
things.

The file should therefore be called /var/lib/dpkg/info/ndtpd.postinst

That (barring me misreading or typing anything else) is the script
that is failing.  In general, when you get an error about a
post-installation script failing, you can head straight to

/var/lib/dpkg/info/[package].postinst

and start poking around that script to see why.
