Hi,

As per the ntpq output given, the initial offset is too high (in bold
below).

ntpq> rv 12516
status=9014 reach, conf, 1 event, event_reach,
srcadr=MAIL, srcport=123, dstadr=192.168.4.18, dstport=123, leap=00,
stratum=2, precision=-6, rootdelay=31.250, rootdispersion=10932.175,
refid=DC1, reach=377, unreach=0, hmode=3, pmode=4, hpoll=6, ppoll=6,
flash=00 ok, keyid=0, ttl=0, *offset=3604309.724*, delay=0.240,
dispersion=20.390, jitter=11.206,

filtdelay=     0.29    0.32    0.28    0.33    0.29    0.29    0.34
0.24,
filtoffset= 3604321 3604321 3604312 3604321 3604321 3604321 3604321
3604309,
filtdisp=     15.63   16.60   17.59   18.58   19.57   20.53   21.49
22.45


Before starting 'ntpd' use  'ntpdate' at the clients to nullify this initial
high
offset.

Then I hope it should work.
