See if you can ping that host:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] paul]$ ping ntp2a.mcc.ac.ak
ping: unknown host ntp2a.mcc.ac.ak
[EMAIL PROTECTED] paul]$ ping ntp2a.mcc.ac.uk
PING maverick.mcc.ac.uk (130.88.202.49) from 217.120.72.79 : 56(84) bytes of
data.
64 bytes from maverick.mcc.ac.uk (130.88.202.49): icmp_seq=0 ttl=237
time=46.909 msec
64 bytes from maverick.mcc.ac.uk (130.88.202.49): icmp_seq=1 ttl=237

It worked here. If that is already impossible, it might be a DNS problem
with your ISP.
