[PLUG] ntpd problems

[MaD dUCK <madduck@madduck.net>]

hey,
i am running xntp version 3 on one of my machines and
updates from various time servers work perfectly. i would
like to use this server as a time server for my internal
network (192.168.14.0) and have added the appropriate
lines to /etc/ntp.conf:

restrict default ignore
restrict 192.168.14.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap notrust

however, trying it out with ntpdate, i get an error:

fishbowl:~ # ntpdate -b -p8 -u albatross
17 Jan 00:35:50 ntpdate[20159]: no server suitable for
  synchronization found
fishbowl:~ # ntpdate albatross
17 Jan 00:35:57 ntpdate[20172]: no server suitable for
  synchronization found
fishbowl:~ # 

so i went ahead and tested the server with a windoze
client, running dimension 4 (prolly the best ntp client
for windoze), and it states that the server (albatross)
returns a wrong ntp packet.

how do i enable the ntp server to be used by ntpdate on
the internal network?

thanks,
martin
