 6 Jun 11:57:31 ntpdate[5011]: no server suitable for synchronization found

Edit

The server I'm being asked to sync to is a firewall , and I've now been told that it is not syncing with anything. So I suppose I need to know if I can force my server to sync with a server that is stratum 16 i.e not sync'd. Is that possible ?
