This past Friday, little Miss Bookworm, had a tantrum and tossed all her timing toys out the pram. She was put into time-out for a while until I read enough to figure it out. Luckily this involved only reading and no rithmatic. It did afford me the opportunity to remove Mint from my drive and rely only on Debian, which frankly, after only a week, I am more comfortable with.
I did add the directory var/log/ntpsec as recommended per the /etc/ntpsec/ntp.conf file, though I have not seen any logs in there. I have the ntp.conf place holder in /etc. If you have any suggestions, tips, or additional reading material, I am open to it.
Thanks for look at this for me.

I decided to use the time.nist.gov time server, for no particular reason other than I know it will ( I hope ) always be there.
I am not certain why I get the insufficient permissions on the file, other than I was not at root when the below command was issued.
The system is syncing, but no idea why NTP service is N/A.
The below was from the root user. I believe the bottom two lines are from the nist main server not being known, the servers it points to are then resolved? I can
edit ntp.conf and change to those particular servers, not certain I want to do that though.
