ntp problems

[MaD dUCK <madduck@madduck.net>]

i have an xntp3 server (redhat, sorry) running on 192.168.1.1
configured as follows:

//

server  130.149.17.21   prefer # ntps1-0.cs.tu-berlin.de
fudge   130.149.17.21   stratum 1

server  129.132.98.11          # bernina.ethz.ch
fudge   129.132.98.11   stratum 1

restrict default                          nomodify notrap notrust noserve
restrict 192.168.1.0   mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap notrust
restrict 130.149.17.21                    nomodify notrap
restrict 129.132.98.11                    nomodify notrap

//

when i try to update my time on 192.168.1.2 with ntpdate (4.0.99g), i
get:
  ntpdate[22312]: no server suitable for synchronization found

turning on the debug flags, i can see that server 192.168.14.1,
port 123 is advertised as stratum 16, precision -17, leap 11, trust 000,
so it's obviously not a candidate for synchronization (since stratum
goes up to 15 only).

why is this so? how can i fix this to make the server be stratum 2
(which it is).

thanks,
