Hello:

	I am running ntpd on a machine behind a router which is taking
care of NAT.  I have the router forwarding UDP packets on port 123 to said
machine, and NTP is working.

Now, do I really need to be forwarding UDP/123 to that machine, or will
ntpd work without it?

I am assuming it won't, as I have had trouble with it before, but I want
to make sure.

Thanks,

Marco Radzinschi
