FYI: it has worked fine for about 15 years of my using FreeBSD until recently! The other solution would be for ntpd to not just give up the first time it looks for the net. It could try again a minute later and it would work just fine. Apparently it never tries a second time! This is something that should just work out of the box, IMHO. Thanks everyone for your help!
