Are you getting an error message?
What OS are you using?
Are you able to "reach" the timeserver?

Unhappy
We are using suse-linux and we are not getting any error messages. we tried 1. adding ntp server in ntp.conf file and restarting xntpd
2. using ntpdate -u <ntpserver>
this also doesn't work .

In /var/log/ntp these are the following messages.

Are you able to run ntpdate in debug mode?
maybe a clue is given....
ntpdate -d -u <ntpserver>
or maybe try different ntp server, and see what happens

maybe (non suse and non redhat) this can help
