I would not use VIPs for protocols which naturally handle having
multiple servers.

It is normal to have multiple DNS server addresses available to clients.
It is normal to have multiple NTP server addresses available to clients.

The clients in these protocols know how to use multiple servers.

For these, we do not use VIPs.

More than that, a VIP can fail to move. Using a VIP means trusting yet
another component to work. That's a bad idea when it's not necessary.

For now, please simply:

 * establish the native (non-VIP) addresses for the rack servers
 * use those addresses for NTP and DNS please
