Question about ntp script

I'm monitoring some ntp devices, and it works fine 
for all the appliances - based on the bb-ntp.sh script from 
deadcat.  However, I have a device that is named 
with a string of "ntp" within the system name that makes 
the script think it should be testing ntp.  I've tried 
adding a [[:space:]] to the grep in the script and it 
doesn't work (no effect) and the ntp script still 
tries to test ntp on the server.  
 
Can anyone help out with a grep that would work 
within a script?  I tried a grep [[:space:]]ntp <filename>
from the command line that works fine, but it doesn't
work in the shell script.
 
Thanks,
Paul
