John,

It's very hard to know what happened without copying what was said.
However, fuzz.psc.edu is a CNAME to mailer1.psc.edu which has
both an A and AAAA record and his system probably doesn't have any
IPv6 addresses set up.He needs to either upgrade to the latest
ntp-dev version or use the -4 option on either the startup line or the
server lines. This was fixed quite a while ago.
