ntpdate no longer working



Hi!

Sometime this afternoon, ntpdate stopped working.

Some debugging shows that it doesn´t even send out any packet to the 
 server. strace´ output doesn´t help me, either:

bash-2.03$ sudo strace ntpdate -v 193.81.13.2

I haven´t done anything to the system for a week or so, and in fact, 
 did nothing but catching up on my mail today.

Any hints from the more clueful? I need exact times on this box for 
 log-comparing purposes rather badly...
