Ok...did that...my file has exactly what you said...I used
tick.usno.navy.mil and tock.usno.navy.mil.  I still get the same
problem.  When I do an 'ntpdate -d', this is what I get:

server 10.200.200.52, port 123
stratum 16, precision -20, leap 11, trust 000
refid [0.0.0.0], delay 0.02573, dispersion 0.00000

24 Jul 18:33:05 ntpdate[67401]: no server suitable for synchronization
found

On the server....in /var/log/messages, I have:

Jul 24 18:31:40 Palpatine ntpd[11357]: ntpd 4.1.0-a Mon Jan 28 12:52:01
GMT 2002 (1)
Jul 24 18:31:40 Palpatine ntpd[11357]: kernel time discipline status
2040

The part I really don't get is where it's getting a reference time of
"Feb 7 2036" from!  The dates on both the server and the client are
correct (at least, they look it when I type 'date')

Any ideas?

Thanks again,
--Brian
