I usually make the stratum something lower, like 5.  The server's stratum must be lower than the clients.

You need to add an additional line to allow access from your clients' subnet. For example, assuming you're using the 192.168.1 subnet:

restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0

If your network is totally isolated, you could just remove the "restrict" lines.

On your client machines, set the server IP address to match your NTP server, or if using DHCP, configure the "ntp-servers" options.
