ICX 7450 Switch wont connect to ntp server

[don_wisdom]

I have a ICX7450 that will not add my ntp server, All our other ICX switches work just fine, ntp debug comes up with this:

Debug: Aug 11 23:09:16 NTP: UDP ports are opened
Debug: Aug 11 23:09:21 NTP: ntp_peer_unfit: dist exceeded - root dist 1620.84877000 of peer x.x.x.6 has exceeded max dist 1.50096000
Debug: Aug 11 23:09:21 NTP: ntp_peer_unfit: unreachable - peer x.x.x.6 is not reachable [peer->reach 0]
Debug: Aug 11 23:09:21 NTP: peer_clear: peer x.x.x.6 next 106989918 refid INIT
Debug: Aug 11 23:09:21 NTP: newpeer: x.x.x.6  mode client vers 4 poll 6 10 key 00000000
 Flags  Flags -> iBURST

Anyone have any suggestions/ideas as to why this is happening?  Rebooting the switch is last resort as its at a remote site.

Thanks
