What commands are you executing? What does your /etc/ntp.conf config file look like? Note that just adding servers lines to the default config file doesn't work, you also need to loosen the security to let that site send you time updates. and also firewall config, though if 'ntpdate pool.ntp.org' works, then ntpd should (though you can only run one or the other) There is a flag that'll let you bind to a different port and run ntpdate even if ntpd is running, though. - Kevin
