What, if anything, leads you to believe that "server1" or "server2" are
actually running NTP, are connected to the network, etc, etc?
What happens if you say:
ping serveri
ping server2
??
Getting a response to ping will show that they are connected to the
network, have network software installed, etc, etc. If they respond to
ping but not to nptq, that would suggest that ntpd is not running.
