I'm not sure it has a gui, after all ntp does not really need one. 

The instalation program does, and you can set it up with a few clicks and
the name of your preferred NTP server.

It will if you select the correct options, create a separate user for NTP,
install itself as a service and turn off the various built in (but not
very useful) NTP and time setting functions.
