Did you resolve your issue?

I looked at your configuration file and while I did not see anything
that stood out as being wrong I also found an unusual set of
configurations which I don't normally see.  If you are not getting
time from other machines then you might start by removing most of that
and then if that works return the configurations one by one until you
locate the problem.

You might try this restrict config instead of the one that you have.

# By default, exchange time with everybody, but don't allow configuration.
# See /usr/share/doc/ntp-doc/html/accopt.html for details.
restrict default kod notrap nomodify nopeer noquery

# Local users may interrogate the ntp server more closely.
restrict 127.0.0.1 nomodify

Hope that helps,
Bob
