Wow...what am I missing here.  From everything I'm reading I should
just be able to add this:

restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap

...in order to allow other machines on my lan (192.168.1 subnet) to
synchronize with that server.  Is there something else I'm missing?
Here's all I get trying to use ntpdate against it:

 ntpdate mythback
 1 May 07:00:05 ntpdate[17489]: no server suitable for synchronization found

What am I missing?
