Hi Paul,

If that line was there it must have been deleted accidentally.

I made the changes you suggested and when I do an ntpq -p
I get the following:

     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
 time.nist.gov   .ACTS.           1 u   43   64    1   43.295  4812.14   0.002
 ns.arc.nasa.gov 198.123.30.132   2 u   47   64    1   22.387  4812.17   0.002
 tick.usno.navy. .USNO.           1 u   46   64    1  272.895  4894.98   0.002
 LOCAL(0)        LOCAL(0)        10 l   45   64    1    0.000    0.000   0.002

This is more than I got before. The time now seems to be within 3-4 seconds
of my other servers.

When I do ntpstat though I get the following:

unsynchronised
  time server re-starting
   polling server every 16 s

So I seem to be very close.
