RE: ntpd not keeping time
Ntpdate and ntptrace are over TCP connections.
Normal ntpd traffic is over UDP connections, I believe.
Check your firewall.
Run ntpdc and enter dmpeer
>dmpeer
remote local st poll reach delay offset disp

should show you the some server connect info
reach is octal 8 bits which represent connection over the last 8 attempts,
i.e., 377 means connected all eight times, 003 means just connected last two
times, etc.
send the dmpeer output, and I'll try to give you a hand...

ntptrace (and ntpdate) work fine, but ntpd still doesn't sync time. I
previously had a very restrictive firewall ruleset on the box, but I've
relaxed it quite a bit and still nothing. :(
