    Also, the start script "/usr/sbin/rcxntpd" calls ntpdate prior to starting
    the xntpd daemon. Ie, it first sets the clock in one shot, then starts the
    daemon to keep the clock in sync.

    But the OP tried the correct sequence and failed:

    pia:~ # /etc/init.d/xntpd stop
    Shutting down network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done
    pia:~ # ps aux | grep ntp
    root 7851 0.0 0.0 1740 572 pts/7 S+ 19:41 0:00 grep ntp
    pia:~ # ntpdate tick.keso.fi
     6 Nov 19:41:15 ntpdate[7856]: no server suitable for synchronization found

    So I think this is symptomatic of firewall problem. I had that problem.
