I need to be clearer here. The primary machine in my office needs to be a 
time server, so that the other machines can use the sync program and 
"ping" to get the correct time from the primary machine. That is to say,
it should not only be running NTP, but the other office machines should be 
able to get the correct time from it using the Redhat time "Date/Time 
properties" little program. It has a message on there that says "Enable 
Network Time Protocol", and then I use that to (try) to sync with my 
primary office machine. but the primary office machine refuses to accept 
it. I just use ntpdate via command mode to see if it is actually working 
properly from another machine.
