Actually it is:
$ ntptrace time.fu-berlin.de
130.133.1.10: stratum 1, offset 0.011233, synch distance 0.00153, refid 'GPS'
Matthias, try running "ntpdate -d time.fu-berlin.de", which won't try
to set the local clock but will print out some debugging info that
might tell you why it coudln't fetch anything from the server. Maybe
you have a firewall blocking incoming port 123 UDP traffic?
