It sounds like (from your original post) that you've got this working.

Okay, this last paragraph is the reason you're not getting any
response.  We know that you've /tried/ to get ntpd syncs working.  Now
/how/ did you try to do it?  What did you put in rc.conf?  Other
files?  Did any errors show up in /var/log/*?

I'm not an NTP expert (there's a great replacement on the web at
cr.yp.to/clockspeed.html... :)), but those of us here that are can't
tell what your problem is without more information about what's
actually going wrong.
