Why do we want/need port forwarding?

The idea is to move everything else to a different port so the only 
traffic on port 123 is requests for the server.

If the client side opens a socket for each server, that gets a default 
random local port.  The replies will come back to that port/socket rather 
than port 123.

I don't have a good plan for mode6/ntpq traffic.  If we put the data into 
shared memory, we can write a version of ntpq that looks there.  Maybe 
it's time for SNMP.  (as much as I hate that sort of stuff)
