Any ideas why NTP isn't working? NTPD service is running. I cant find any ntp related logs in /var/log.
All latest updates are installed, running on Pi2.
/etc/ntp.conf:

Oops, can you ping the servers ({0,1,2,3}.debian.pool.ntp.org) ?
I can ping all of them

Ok, so next question(s):
Did NTP ever work?
Maybe you have firewall that blocks ntp (in and/or out) packages
I've already read in a different forum (different OS), that there are providers blocking ntp packages and forcing clients to use their own ntp server
It worked before. Guess I have to check my firewall. Thaks for help!

Is the ntp daemon running ?
If not, you can try start here up with:
And check below ones :
Code:
sudo zcat /var/log/upstart/ntp.log.1.gz
NTP service is running, that's not the problem.
Upstart log contains only records like those:

Sounds for me that ntp never has been started
Could you please run commands as follows:
Code:
sudo stop ntp
sudo rm -f /var/log/upstart/ntp.log
sudo start ntp
sudo cat /var/log/upstart/ntp.log
The output should look like this
Terminal
root@kmxbilr2 /etc/default # stop ntp

root@kmxbilr2 /etc/default # rm -f /var/log/upstart/ntp.log

Sorry to jump in here, but those last 2 lines in your upstart log I have seen here too.....It started about 2 months ago and I get an email every night with 2 lines like this.....

Happens on all Xbian pi using RTC and updating via the NTP servers nightly.
I noticed that the "....mask '::'" bit is also in Nachteules log, but not the failed binding, so maybe a clue here?
Hmmmm.....This is what I get after running @nachteules' commands...
