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? ~~~~~~
Try this; create a DNS entry called ntp.yourinternaldomain.com, then plug that name into XP's internet time. I had a similar problem and changing the IP address to FQDN fixed it.
Perhaps it will work for you.
Good luck,
~James

Try running these from the command line
net time /setsntp:10.0.0.87 <====your NTP ip here
net time /querysntp
net stop w32time && net start w32time

---- I think that you have to have administrative privileges or group policy permissions to be able to do those commands in Windows.
