Solved! (Partly) I'm on a Windows domain, and it has it's own time server of course. That was blocking access to any external time servers. However, while I can now do ntpdate from the command line with the local time server ip specified, I have to kill ntp first since it is using the same socket. I think this issue have been discussed in the past and I can probably find the answer with enough googling, but if someone wants to share the recipe that would be great.
