Setting up NTP for multicast client service

We have a network with Cisco routers that are set up to sync with
external time servers... and multicast announcements.
I can't seem to get FC5 set up as a client, however, and was wondering
what I missed:
# ntpq -c peer
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
*LOCAL(0) LOCAL(0) 10 l 50 64 377 0.000 0.000 0.001
#
I added "-m" to the OPTIONS in /etc/sysconfig/ntpd, and uncommented:
multicastclient # listen on default 224.0.1.1
restrict 224.0.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap
but it's not syncing up.
Also... anyone have any experience using a USB GPS mouse (like an
Earthmate) as a clock source on a server?
Thanks,
-Philip
