looking for a check servertime against main time server

Thnks. They have NTPD installed and running so I can check the time constantly. So I'd like to have a plugin that compares the time of two NTP servers. 
Otrherwise I have to make one myself.

Those same plugins can be used on the hosts you want to check.

Since the machines you want to check presumably aren't running ntpd 
themselves, they don't expose the time over the network in a way you 
can check without installing something on them to make it accessible. 
Use check_ntp. You need to install it on the remote servers and run it 
there through check_nrpe, check_by_ssh or the like.
