Thank you for all of your suggestions.  I finally found one IP address
that did work for me, many of the others that were submitted returned the
same error message to me though.  Actually after I found the one, more
seemend to work.  Below is my results.  I wonder why this doesnt work for
me, yet it does for others... is it because I have a different IP address,
I'm behind a firewall, __my local time is set so far off__, ...????

Am I the only one with this problem?

I'm running a debian stable version of the package.
ii  ntpdate        4.1.0-8        The ntpdate client for setting system

Ok, just a summary of the time servers submitted, and what worked for me.
