I don't know about NTP and port 123, but I can use regular
time protocol port 37 on tick.gatech.edu and it works OK

rdate -p tick.gatech.edu

a bit slow in responding, I use time.nist.gov myself.  Are 
you sure that tick.gatech.edu has an NTP server in addition
to the regular time server?  NTP is not a very common 
protocol.
