Ntp -- getting it to work

[Michael]

I'm trying to get the macports ntp to work

I have disabled the system ntpd by unchecking the preference in date and time preference to synchronize.
I have used "sudo port load ntp" to start the ntpd daemon.

I've verified that it is running.
But "ntpdc -s" fails to get anything other than "localhost: timed out, nothing received".

Help?
