Thank you very much, for looking into this. The problem was really on my side.

In order to facilitate tracking 12-CURRENT, I exclude some files in the course of the upgrade procedure in /etc from being replaced, principally /etc/rc.conf. Now I see, that said exclude mechanism collaterally prevented upgrading /etc/defaults/rc.conf as well, which actually was not intended. I replaced the old /etc/defaults/rc.conf with the latest one, and ntpd starts fine now. I corrected the mechanism as well.

Please excuse my ignorance.

Best regards

Rolf
