check_ntp and time-offset 0.000000 sec

Hi all!

We had to comment out the following pice of code in the check_ntp plugin:

        # An offset of 0.000000 with an error is probably bogus. Actually,
        # it's probably always bogus, but let's be paranoid here.
        if ($offset == 0) { undef $offset;}

We are using check_ntp to watch for the time difference on our server which
are all NTP-Clients. Some times Nagios reported an error, because of a
zero-offset.

At the moment I can't overview why this check should be done. What do you
think?

ciao
Kurt
