You mean this?
# /etc/ntp.conf, configuration for xntpd
# ntpd will use syslog() if logfile is not defined
#logfile /var/log/ntpd
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift
statsdir /var/log/ntpstats/

#server 127.127.1.1 # LCL, local clock
#fudge 127.127.1.1 stratum 12 # increase stratum
I am not sure how this would help, but since you asked..
That is the only config file I know about.

You might have missed this bit of my original message then. Yes, I did
post the debug output of ntptrace. Or, at least that what the BTS
says...

In which case, it has nothing to do with my main problem. :-(

I can ping the remote host. You may have missed my tcpdump...
According to it, the response is correctly reaching my computer, but
my computer is responding with and ICMP error (port unreachable).
Later: Hang on, I see the problem. It should have been obvious, my
firewall setup!!! ARggghhh! The packets were being filtered!
Sorry about any confusion this may have caused.
However, ntptrace still doesn't work correctly...

Will do.
