mine:

$ ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset 
jitter

^^^ this is to join a _local_ server

I'm a bit rust on this but should the "restrict" parameters allow
servers from pool.ntp.org ?
also if there is delta time too big it wont syncronize , before to start
the ntp server try a

ntpdate -4b 0.pool.ntp.org
ntpdate -4b 1.pool.ntp.org

then start ntp, leave pass few hours and then check again the result of
ntpq -p

as said I'm a bit rush but small variation of what described here should
work.
