This is an interesting topic that some of us have kicked around from
time to time.  There currently is no MIB defined for NTP; one would
have to be designed.  

There are, of course, a number of design decisions to make; one of the
more obvious is how to represent 64 bit NTP timestamps in the MIB.
Two 32 bit integers?  Octet string?  Hmm..
