I'm not familiar with the NTP server to be honest, but I do believe in that there is no difference between a NTP server and other standard servers.

Let me introduce the following wikipedia page for NTP protocol.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol

The page stated as "NTP uses UDP port 123 as its transport layer. It is designed particularly to resist the effects of variable latency by using a jitter buffer.".

Therefore first of all, it is better to check the NTP server that you are working on has the transport port [UDP] 123 opened or not. Maybe do a telnet will identify this very quickly. If the targeted port 123 is not opened on the server (which I think is very impossible), then you need to find the manual or any document to find out which port running NTP protocol is opened on your server.

Secondly, the page also stated that "The operational details of NTP are illustrated in RFC 778, RFC 891, RFC 956, RFC 958, and RFC 1305. The current reference implementation is version 4 (NTPv4); however, as of 2005, only versions up to 3 (1992) have been documented in RFCs. The IETF NTP Working Group has formed to standardize the work of the NTP community since RFC 1305 et al."

Therefore you need to find out which version of NTP your server is operating on. This could be done by looking at the above RFC documents first. For example, do a very quick tcpdump or pdu (protocol data unit) capture will identify this.

Once you have all these questions cleared out, you can implement network code in Java very easily. Nearly every network book mentions this part.
Let me introduce this book for you:
http://books.google.ie/books?hl=en&id=NyxObrhTv5oC&dq=java+network+programming&printsec=frontcover&source=web&ots=1dbMAIYlNW&sig=FLdQwEeaK0METOjeuM78AJGhq1A&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=5&ct=result

Also see the below example as a UDP network application for a start:


try {

  DatagramSocket client = new DatagramSocket( );

  // send packets...

}

catch (SocketException ex) {

  System.err.println(ex);

}

You would use this constructor in a client that initiates a conversation with a server. In this scenario, you don't care what port the socket is bound to, because the server will send its response to the port from which the datagram originated. Letting the system assign a port means that you don't have to worry about finding an unused port. If for some reason you need to know the local port, you can find out with the getLocalPort( ) method described later in this chapter.

The same socket can receive the datagrams that a server sends back to it. A SocketException is thrown if the socket can't be created. It's unusual for this constructor to throw an exception; it's hard to imagine situations in which the socket could not be opened, since the system gets to choose the local port.
