I’ve set up a Debian Etch server to deploy several monitoring tools

which is configured as an NTP server and serves up time to all the
Windows boxes on the network, but I can’t see to get the Debian box
to sync up with it. I’ve made the changes to point the ntpd to the
Windows 2003 server, but still nothing.
Anyone else run into this and found a workaround?
Have you run 'ntpq' and looked at the output of the 'peers' command,
to see whether it's able to get time information from the Windows
server? If you're not sure what you're looking at, you can cut and
paste the output into a reply and I'll help you.
