[greg@prt:greg]$ dpkg -l | grep ntp
ii  ntp            4.2.0a-8       Network Time Protocol: network utilities
ii  ntp-doc        4.2.0a-8       Network Time Protocol: documentation
ii  ntp-server     4.2.0a-8       Network Time Protocol: common server tools
ii  ntp-simple     4.2.0a-8       Network Time Protocol: daemon for simple sys
ii  ntpdate        4.2.0a-8       The ntpdate client for setting system time f

I have the docs there so I can futz with things.

Gives me this (I use IP addys so I don;t have to worry about DNS
failing)

[greg@knight:greg]$ ntpq -cpe
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
