I'm seeing an increase over time too.  The number of servers in my region
(UK) doesn't seem to be increasing too fast, so traffic levels to my
server are going up.

Is the 'discard' parameter of ntpd a good way to cut down on the abusers? 
If so what units are the average and minimum in?  Packets per minute?  And
the probability of discard - is that a number between 0 and 1?  The NTP
documentation is very verbose, but seems to be missing key details here
and there...

discard [ average avg ][ minimum min ] [ monitor prob ]

Thanks,
Laurence
