I'm on 8.04 and the 'synchronize now' button does nothing, with or without ntp installed. On a 8.10 machine next to it, the 'synchronize now' button does nothing, with or without ntp installed. I'm not sure if it's the same bug as this, or even the same bug on both machines. I can synchronize using ntpdate <server> or ntpdate-debian (after hacking /etc/default/ntpdate) on the terminal.
