If I understand it correctly, the xymonnet check "ntp" does nothing else
than a
ntpdate -u -q -p 2 <target>
interpreting the result. You may have luck with debugging if that on its
own fails from time to time. Also the report of the check in case of
failure (since you say its flapping it must have a not OK state
sometimes, doesn't it) may provide clues about the reasons for the check
failing in the first place.
