Kill ntpd, re-run "ntpdate -b", double-check that your clock is sane,

Off by an hour? Let's see the date is November 30th,
and 12:41pm, that's what Windows says. Meanwhile
freebsd says - Thu Nov 30 00:22:07 PST 2006. Wouldn't
that be...nearly 12 hours?
I was judging the time-offset by the output of "ntpq -p".
However, if you are dual-booting between FreeBSD and Windows, you
will also need to consider whether to keep the CMOS/BIOS clock
running in UTC or in your local timezone; see "man adjkerntz" for
details.
It's entirely possible that doing a "touch /etc/wall_cmos_clock" will
solve your issue.

If you are not providing time sync to a large subnet, please consider
using stratum-2 servers or the NTP pool, ie, pool.ntp.org, or more
specific regional parts, such as 0.us.pool.ntp.org,
1.us.pool.ntp.org--
this is assuming from your IP that you are located in the US,
otherwise
choose the appropriate country code for where-ever you are.
I'll give it a shot and see what happens, I did just
that yesterday. Okay, changed my pool since it's to
keep this computer's time correct.
Thanks for your help. :)
You are most welcome.
