I'm happy to change the default, but I think we need some text that explains
why.
--------
The old noquery was there to fix a DDoS amplification attack using the old
monlist. That's not possible any more, but there may be other reasons for
noquery.
Is nopeer interesting? I thought we dropped support for "peer" and the
corresponding server side support too.
I don't understand kod/limited and how they are tangled with DoS attacks.
Is nomodify needed? I thought all the ntpq commands that changed anything
needed a password.
