I hate to reopen a dead thread, however, I'm having a very strange 
problem  I have 2 machines running ntpd.  I just set this up and it is 
not working.  I don't think the ntpd servers are syncing properly and 
ntpdate -b 192.168.1.2 doesn't work, it gives me a strata too high with 
the -d flag.  Here is my current config/output, this network is not 
actually nat'd private ips so I changed the ips for security reasons:

server1(192.168.1.2)
/etc/ntp.conf
server 0.pool.ntp.org
server 1.pool.ntp.org
server 2.pool.ntp.org

peer 192.168.1.3
restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap
logconfig =syncall +clockall +sysall

ntpq -p output

Any help getting this to work will be appreciated.
