rb1100 NTP client will not sync

Here is my config:
#
/system ntp client
set enabled=yes mode=unicast primary-ntp=66.96.99.4 secondary-ntp=0.0.0.0
My clock never syncs. I am using the same ntp server on several other routers with no problems at all. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi can you please do the following for me:
[admin@CybertAP] > system ntp client print
enabled: yes
mode: unicast
primary-ntp: 172.16.15.1
secondary-ntp: 172.16.2.130
status: synchronized
And follow that with either a trace to u'r NTP or a ping from the ntp?

Turns out the 66.96.99.4 does not ping, and a trace route dies at 66.96.99.1. It is a public ntp server. Maybe its set to not respond to pings?? But I know its an active server, because nearly every device on my network is using it and syncing just fine. I put in a different server address as seen below. This is also a public server, is ping-able, and is syncing fine on the few devices I have it on, but is not syncing on my 1100. Do I have to specifically allow for ntp in my firewall input chain? I haven't had to on my other devices, which are a mixture of routerboards including 450g, 411, 433, 493 etc.
