The documentation is in the .html subdirectory. You can read it with a
web browser. If you don't have a browser, it is formatted so as to be
readable as text also. If the distribution you downloaded does not
include the .html directory, the documentation is also available online at
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/index.html
In answer to your specific question, you need to to create /etc/ntp.conf
with, at least, the statement:
server clock.fmt.he.net
A minimum of four servers is strongly recommended!
