@Lionel Dricot: If you not know the address of your local ntp server in
a Windows NT, Active Directory controlled network, you can try to typ
the command "net time" in the windows command promt. If one working NTP
Server exists in your network, the address should show up.
Afther that, add the this
I agree completely. I will report an usability bug against Gnome clock
for this.

Might be a firewall on the Linux system then.
This is wandering away from the original bug.
I think it's fair to make the bug 'invalid' as NTP does not use a proxy. A
usability bug "NTP gives no indication of its status" might be more appropriate.
I'll have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/commu
ntptrace replies with a timeout. So UDP is bloqued. (but how does it
work on Windows). How can we see which ntp server Windows XP uses ?

Your ISP should have an NTP server too, that's probably the best one to sync on
as it's closest.

I suspect the problem is your drift, not your proxy/firewall/gateway.
NTP tries to not only fix your clock offset, but also your clock drift.
It has limits, however, and if your drift is too bad it just gives up
after a while. You might be lucky to find a message about it in
/var/log/messages, but
The problem, as an average user, is the following :
"My GNOME clock is out of sync altough it is marked as using NTP and all
seems to be working fine because no error is displayed"
Because I'm not completely an average user, I can guess that the problem
is that I'm behind a web proxy. So, I see t
I'm not sure I understand the problem you're reporting.
I assume you are behind a firewall and use a proxy for web access (HTTP,
HTTPS, FTP etc).
NTP cannot use a web proxy, but it works just fine behind a firewall
provided the firewall allows UDP packets to leave and NAT's the replies.
