I'd swear I followed the install directions correctly, yet when I try to run
ntpdate (the example below uses an NTP server run by HP and has debug and
verbose mode turned on) I get the message "no server suitable for
synchronization found". I get the same message regardless of the server I
try. Our network administrator claims we are not blocking port 123. Anyone
have an idea what's going wrong here?
