What is happening is that your system clock is so far off that ntpd starts up and then shutdown because the time delta is too great. I just enable ntpdate. In /etc/rc.conf I have the lines: ntpdate_enable="YES" ntpdate_flags="-b" # Causes ntpdate to step the time regardless of delta Reboot the system, this should fix your problem.
