See this site also http://www.ntp.org/
This is something that trapped me for a while.  Might save some time for you 
when it goes south  

"The only other thing worth mentioning is that the restrict declarations apply 
to packets from all hosts, including those that are configured elsewhere in 
the configuration file and even including your clock pseudopeer(s), if any. 
Hence, if you specify a default set of restrictions which you don't wish to 
be applied to your configured peers, you must remove those restrictions for 
the configured peers with additional restrict declarations mentioning each 
peer separately."

Remember to allow ntp packets throught your firewall.
