Thanks to Ramon Gandia for his suggestions.
Reread the NTP FAQ and discovered that it can take up to 20 minutes to synch and
properly begin services. I am stoopid :P. Our network is all happily on proper time
now. I am using NTP because our M$ NT 4.0 DHCP server supports the option. Now all I
have to do is find and deploy a win32 NTP client.

I believe Network Time Protocol (NTP) only uses UDP port 123. The utility ntptrace
times out (ntp equivanet of traceroute). SO, I open a tunnel from EXT to the NTP
server for UDP 123, update the filters and it still times out. What is the problem
here? The ntp.conf is the bare minimum directed to an open public server
