because you're firewall is doing what you told it ... disallow all ports

there's lots of debugging commands ... to try out
ntptrace -dv someplace-ntp.server.com
ntpdc -c peers
rest of the debugging
http://linux-consulting.com/NTP/NTP.Commands.txt
and if your clock is out of sync by more than 1000sec ...
it may or may not tell you and wont sync ... but you
can get around that too before ntp'ing
