Use the UTM as an NTP server

Heli0s
Is it possible to use the UTM as an NTP server? I've created a firewall rule that allows NTP to the UTM, but when I ask a Windows machine to sync time, I get an error and the firewall logs show a dropped packet going to port 123.

Do I have to set the computers to sync off the UTM or is it possible to redirect all requests to port 123 to the UTM? (I'd rather do the latter)

    I use my UTM as my NTP server.  All of my clients are directed to the IP of the UTM.

    Did you hard-code the IP/name of the UTM to each machine or are you using the UTM to forward all NTP requests to the UTM?

    I just changed my machines to look at the UTM IP address here at home.  Like William said, keep that off of external networks.
