Here's a corrected version of the /etc/ntp.conf for the laptop:

-------------------------------------8X-------------------------------------
# Laptop /etc/ntp.conf

driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift

# Minimal Authentication
keys    /etc/ntp.keys
trustedkey 1

# Broadcast Server for the Isolated LAN
tos orphan 5
broadcast isolated.LAN.broadcast.address key 1

# Remote time servers (when connected to the Internet)
# This example uses the global pool. You may wish to narrow down the
# scope by using a sub zone. The server lines were deliberately repeated
# to give you more than three time sources.
server 0.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 0.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 1.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 1.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.pool.ntp.org iburst
