This super simple script checks the synchronization with the time server. Specifies the IP server to which you are synchronized and offset. Requires ntpq. It does not require any parameter. When you start it you should get:
someone@linuxhost:~# ./check_ntp_server_sync.sh
Synchronized with the server: 91.189.89.199 offset: 0.073
or
someone@linuxhost:~# ./check_ntp_server_sync.sh
No synchronization with the time server
someone@linuxhost:~# ./check_ntp_server_sync.sh
Synchronized with the server: 91.189.89.199 offset: 0.073
or
someone@linuxhost:~# ./check_ntp_server_sync.sh
No synchronization with the time server

I changed the pluguin to be perfdata:
Now
- It returns 0 if the peer has been declared the system peer and lends its variables to the system variables.
- It returns 1 if the peer is a survivor, but not among the first six peers sorted by synchronization distance.
If the association is ephemeral, it may be demobilized to conserve resources.
- If it returns 2 if the peer is discarded as unreachable, synchronized to this server (synch loop) or outrageous synchronization distance.

# Checks if the ntp service synchronises to the server time, gives ntp server IP and offset.
