An HTTP proxy should have no bearing whatsoever on your ability to sync NTP. – Shane Madden Aug 09 '11 at 02:03

all the network traffic goes through it, not just HTTP – amyassin Aug 09 '11 at 02:05

2Then it's not a proxy, it's a router. – Shane Madden Aug 09 '11 at 02:09

2Configure your NTP client for the network's NTP server. If the network doesn't have a NTP server, set one up. If you are a user and not the system administrator then this site is not for you, see the [FAQ] for more details. – Chris S Aug 09 '11 at 02:10

Setup NTP on the proxy server to sync with the wider world and tell the isolated machine to use the proxy for NTP service.
