I edit the server's conf file.
 
server 127.127.1.0 broadcast 20.1.1.255fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
also start the ntp deamon with -A option.
but still there is the same problem.
i analyze the network and i can not see any ntp packages at the server side.
it doesnot broadcast the ntp packages to the 20.1.1.255. 
what can be the problem.
by the way do i need to give drift file to make broadcast server work?
