> Do you have ntpd setup for crypto? 

I've now got it working using symmetric keys.

For the record (it's taken a bit of fiddling to get this right):

 - FreeBSD doesn't support DES crypto in ntpd

 - so you must use type "M" keys in the ntp.keys file.  (This is also true
   and works for Solaris, despite the confusing ntp.conf man page)

 - and you must specify the filename with a "keys /etc/ntp.keys" directive - 
   there is no default value, despite what the manual seems to imply.

Given that, broadcast mode is working fine for me now, even with Solaris 
clients.

Greg.
