Comment:
Macports policy is to ship the latest stable upstream version. The conf
file we have always shipped with ntp includes settings to prevent ntp from
being used as a DDoS amplifier (you will note that the specific command in
the CVE linked to is blocked from anything other than localhost) see also
http://openntpproject.org.
Do you have evidence of a new attack or that the conf we ship isn't
effective?
If not, I'm going to revert cal's changes in r125063
