What does "ntpq -p" show?
A healthy ntp should show at least one ntp server with a "reach"
column of 377, a stratum (st) column of some low number (< 16).
[wolfgangl@ancho ~]$ ntpq -p
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That is a hint. ntpdate can't find any servers. That can be either
because no servers are listed in /etc/ntp/step-tickers or because they
are down or blocked by a firewall.
