After Aidan did whatever he did on op440m, I had to restart ntpd. I noticed it didn't actually do
anything so I restarted it by hand with the '-l' option to make a logfile. Essentially, the
problem is that NTPD is not allowed access to the outside world's NTP servers by our NAT router;
this should be fixed.

So for now I set all of the .conf files to point to rana and nodus' IP addresses. According to the
log files, that is successful. Rosalba and Mafalda, however, seem to have correct time but are
looking at rhel.ntp.pool.org and time.nist.gov, respectively. Maybe these have special rules?

For reference, the linux machines' conf files are /etc/ntp.conf
and the solaris machines' conf files are /etc/inet/ntp.conf

I also logged into dcuepics (aka scipe25) and did as instructed.
