I am trying to get NTP to broadcast the time on my local subnet.  I have

router>my computer.  My computer's IP address is 192.168.1.100 and my
router is 192.168.1.1.  Gnome-network-tools shows in devices under the
broadcast column an IP of 192.168.1.255.  So I assumed that
192.168.1.255 is the sub-net, or is it 192.168.1.0.

192.168.1.255 is the broadcast address on your subnet

You mean that the router is broadcasting on 192.168.1.255? So if I put 192.168.1.255 in ntp.conf, then the router will get the ntp packets from 192.168.1.100 and broadcast them to other computers on the lan.
