That's not the way xntpd is enabled. You may want to use rcctl(8): # rcctl stop ntpd ntpd(ok) # rcctl disable ntpd # rcctl enable xntpd # rcctl start xntpd xntpd(ok) The relevant lines in /etc/rc.conf.local end up being this: ntpd_flags=NO pkg_scripts=xntpd -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de
