Since you don't mention where you are from, I can only give you a place to start.  Take a look here and if you follow some of the links you will find public NTP servers to sync to.

Easy way to get the NTP to work:

go to this web site, http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock1.htm

copy any url as for the first one: ntp.ise.canberra.edu.au
and paste it in server-manager -> date and time -> NTP server then just click on Save NTP Settings. If after a few seconds, the answer from your server said the time is set to ... then it is ok. If not, try another location

Stratum 1 servers should not be used by end point clients. Please see:

http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.htm

for the general policy, and please use stratum 2 or lower servers.
