I think I simply copied this from /etc/rc.d/ntpd.
The question where to start ntpd in the startup sequence is tricky.
If people set openntpd's -s flag ("set the time immediately at startup
if the local clock is off by more than 180 seconds"), then it should
be started as early as possible, before other daemons and certainly
before users log in. If people don't set -s, then openntpd can
start up late.

What for? There is no particular shutdown action to be taken, no
database to sync.
