According to the xntpd/ntpd daemon that I have installed on my system, it
doesn't provide a command line option for changing the port and that is
probably because ntp clients/servers should operate on port 123.  My advice to
you, would be to examine your SUSE firewall and get it to open up port 123 so
that you can use the correct port for the ntpd services.

See ya
