      So you have a vip on igb1?

      I would sniff on your wan - do you see traffic going out to those servers? With source IP natted to your wan IP?

      Is your default route out your wan, or via vpn.. IE you pulled routes?

          Snort huh... yeah could be problematic..

          But its a given if your ntpd can not get into sync by talking to the ntp servers you point it to, either direct or pool then no clients would sync with it. ;) since its not a valid time source until it has gotten into sync with valid time source.
