I have a Centos 5 64-bit server that has ntp service enabled. Windows XP with SP2 cannot properly sync to it for time, but can communicate with it via samba, ssh, and anything else. I also disabled the Windows Firewall. The C5 system does not have any firewall enabled.
Other C5 workstations can successfully sync to it via ntpdate.
What else could cause the XP machine to not be able to time sync with the C5 server?
I'd double-check the c5 ntpd config. Are the xp machines really in the same allowed subnet like the c5 workstations?
Personally I don't use Windows' time sync anymore, I use the ntp implementation for windows from here:

Install/config is very easy, you even get the ntpdc command.
