That "something" it tells you is actually valuable diagnostic info.
It's telling you that xntpd can't set the time because it's so far off
now that xntpd can't handle it. So, before you start xntpd you need to
issue an 'ntpdate whatever.your.primary.time.host.is' then you should be
able to start xntpd.
Good luck,
Doug
