Remove /var/db/ntpd.drift before you reboot or restart your ntpd.
This is what I use in /etc/rc.conf: +++ ntpd_enable="YES" # Run ntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO). ntpd_program="/usr/sbin/ntpd" # path to ntpd, if you want a different one. ntpd_flags="-p /var/run/ntpd.pid -f /etc/ntp/drift -l /var/log/ntp.log" +++
Check ntpd messages with dmesg.
If it does not work, this is one ntp.conf (change server to time.u.washington.edu or whatever is closer to you) that worked well for me:
+++++ BEGIN /etc/ntp.conf +++++++ # NTP configuration file # # Thu Nov 11 20:06:40 GMT+1 2004
restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 notrust nomodify notrap restrict 127.0.0.1
# servers to query #-------------------
server clock.tix.ch
restrict clock.tix.ch mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
+++++ END /etc/ntp.conf +++++++
Once you get synchronised with your time-server, you can consider changing minpoll maxpoll to polite values.
