ntpq no longer working -

I changed from fc4 to fc5, isp from dial-up to a satellite connection 
[Wildblue], and added a "wireless" router [radio frequency link] to my 
system, all in the space of about a week.  In the process I seem to have 
lost the ability to query ntp with "ntpq -p."

It produces an error message:

ntpq  -p
Name or service not known

The servers I  have been using for more than a year are:

#       
/etc/ntp.conf                                                          
#                                                                               

                                                                                

server 
clock2.redhat.com                                                       
server 
ntp-1.cns.vt.edu                                                        
server 
ntp-2.cns.vt.edu                                                        
server 
ntp-3.cns.vt.edu                                                        
server ntp-4.cns.vt.edu

I use Firestarter to control the firewall and it doesn't show ntp being 
blocked, in fact I can stop Firestarter and the problem is still there?

Any thoughts on where to look or what to try next appreciated.
