But not other services like NTP, so DHCPv6 is still needed.

Create a DNS name ntp.yourdomain.example.org that points at your internal ntp servers.

Configure your ntp clients to use the name, and maybe add a pool.ntp.org entry or two into your configs.

> Configure your ntp clients to use the name

So how do you do this hands-off, ie without manually changing things on the clients, without DHCPv6?

For NTP, an alternative is letting the LAN devices connect to whatever NTP server they want to, and just NAT'ing outgoing udp/123 to your NTP server.

Well yes, but that's a suboptimal hack.
