By now the main server should be showing "interesting" ntpq results, correct?

Stop ntpd on the laptop, "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ntpd stop". (That in itself might
prove interesting.)

Now, try "ntpdate -v -p 2 128.118.25.3" to see what it does. If you can make
that work you are halfway there.

Also try "ntpdate -v -p 2 192.168.0.1" and see what it does.

Also note that it takes a couple minutes before an "ntpq -p" returns much of
anything interesting whem ntpd is running.
