Did you actually read that error message? The whole thing?
Especialy the last 3 words? Somehow your system clock has gotten very far
out of whack. Like, almost 3 hours out of whack. Use ntpdate to synch your
clock manually to the preferred server from your ntp.conf file, then start
xntpd. It's a good idea to do that every time anyway to avoid this exact
situation.
Good luck,
Doug
