NTP between linux and Solaris 10

I am trying to sync up a few RH Linux clients to a Solaris NTP Server.
The Solaris server gets it's time from a Windows Domain Controller, and
it seems to sync up fine. The Linux clients, however, won't sync.

On the client, I get the following results:

#ntpstat
unsychronised
time server re-starting
polling server every 64 s

ntpq> peers

On the Solaris server, I get the following stats:

#date

#ntptrace

Any help would be appreciated.
