Isn't this what check_ntp currently does if you run it on any machine 
and give it the address of the timeserver?

If you remote execute check_ntp on any machine with -H timeserver and 
the warning and critical thresholds -w and -c, you get alerted if the 
local machine is not in sync with the timeserver.

I don't understand the difference really.
