After your machine has booted and run in multiuser mode for several minutes run ntpdc to query ntpd about its status. The command to see its status with its time servers is 'peers', e.g.

;ntpdc
ntpdc> peers

It was posted here recenlty that if your security setting is at 1 (?),
then ntp can only change the clock by 1 second...


init(8) states secure level 2 or above.
