xntpd : restrict default ignore

[Ratzie]

I have place in my xntpd.conf file:
restrict default ignore

For security reasons. I do not all iformation being displayed.
But now when I run ntpq -p I get nothing back:
localhost: timed out, nothing received
***Request timed out

How do I know now that ntp is working properly?

Your ntp is not working. If xntpd is running, you likely have error messages in syslog. Start by verifying each of your NTP time sources:

ntpq -p www.ntpsource1.com
ntpq -p www.ntpsource2.com

If these do not return server details, then the NTP port (123) is blocked or servers are not responding.
