Look in /usr/share/doc/ntp-xxxx for notes.htm, debug.htm (it's present 
in my RH9 systems)

A minimalist configuration file might look like this:

==== ntp.conf ====
restrict <your_net_addr;i.e.:xxx.xxx.xxx.0> mask <e.g.255.255.255.0> 
notrust nomodify notrap
server <addr_of_ntp_server_for_this_machine>
fudge   127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile /etc/ntp/drift
==================

You can build from here for your desired level of security and other 
features.

Don't forget to open up your firewall for the ntp ports. (UDP 123)
