I think you need the configuration file, ntp.conf. Either put it in the
default location where the program will find it or pass the location of
the file in the command line.
Without the configuration file, ntpd will not know how to find its
servers! It may have some desparation default that I don't know of but
I wouldn't want to count on it!
