Dear Emmanuel, The clients and server are within the same private network. There is not any firewall in this network. The ntpd daemon is running in the server. The message that concerns me the most from the CLIENTs log is "May 23 18:08:34 localhost ntpdate[15492]: no server suitable for synchronization found".
Heres is what I get for the ntptrace -v -v 20.0.0.1 command (taplab is the hostname of 20.0.0.1): ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@localhost log]# ntptrace -v -v 20.0.0.1 taplab: *Timeout* [root@localhost log]# ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I included a ping send to "taplap" just to show that there is connectivity to this server. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@localhost log]# ping taplab PING taplab (20.0.0.1) from 172.16.50.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.

Could you show us the output of `ntptrace -v -v 20.0.0.1` ? My guess is that either ntpd on the server hasn't started (unlikely) or the server has a firewall that blocks port 123 (possible).
