Well .. the obvious possibilities are

         1. your system cannot reach the hosts you try
         2. the hosts you try are not ntp servers
         3. your system is behind a firewall that interfeerse with access 
to the ntp port

Post the details of what you have been trying and we'll try to help you 
figure out the exact problem.

BTW, ntpdate is a different program from ntpd (on Debian systems, it is a 
completely separate install from ntpd), so you might want to be a bit more 
exact about what ntp package you are trying to run. Also what Linux distro.
