[CentOS] ntpd appears to not be able to query ntp servers automatically?

Hello all,
After reboot, one of my servers running CentOS5 no longer keeps its
clock synced automatically. ntpd is running and I don't see anything
weird being logged. If I kick off ntpd with 'ntpd -q', it will sync the
clock. However, if I just rely on ntpd started with 'service ntpd
start', syncing does not happen.
I previously had:
# Undisciplined Local Clock. This is a fake driver intended for backup
# and when no outside source of synchronized time is available.
server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
and noticed that ntpd would fail down to using the undisciplined local
clock if I checked with ntpstat. I commented those out, and now ntpstat
simply says:
unsynchronised
time server re-starting
polling server every 64
Any idea as to why ntpd -q will sync, but otherwise the clock will not
stay in sync even when the local clock drifts by several minutes? It
worked fine prior to reboot.
Thanks,
Ryan
