Hi, please run "crontab -e " in command line in client computer.
then you should input the following line to sync from ntp server every 5
minute.

0 5 * * * /usr/sbin/ntpdate 192.168.0.1(that is ntp server's
ip address)

(I see that the issue was resolved already, I'm just commenting.)

This isn't going to work if you're running an NTPd on the clients, since the ntpd has bound to the port already. It's also not suggested practice for NTP clients, and is probably why the `ntpdate' command is going away. Better to let a ntpd daemon adjust the time than run it out of cron.
