I know, I know, Red Hat 9 is obsolete, but it isn't worth the trouble of
putting anything else on those machines to fix this problem.

The problem is, they won't sync to NTP servers. ntpq -p reports jitters
of 4000 and reach values of 0 for all servers I put in ntp.conf. Another
machine running SuSE 9.1 on the same network can sync to the same
servers just fine. All machines access the Internet through an ADSL
router doing NAT.

Any thoughts? Maybe I should just rebuild from the xntpd sources...
