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

Can you post the output of the debug ntp sync run?
Maybe there is some clue what is happening.
(cause no error usually means it works...)
