and it repeats. Where do I find the configuration file that lists these, and
then hopefully I can correct it/them and get my time synced? I've looked in
ntpd.conf but can't see it.
Are you using pool.ntp.org ntp servers? These are probably IPs from that
pool. Is your ntpd actually getting synced? What's the output of:
From ntp.conf;-

server 1.pool.ntp.org

You're not reaching those timeservers. So perhaps *all* of them are down
(sounds a bit unlikely), or maybe there's a firewall rule blocking ntp
packets?
You might want to look at http://www.pool.ntp.org/#use and tune the
entries to choose servers in your own country, or even use your ISP's
ntp server if they have one.
