% grep xntpd /etc/defaults/rc.conf
xntpd_enable="NO"               # Run xntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO).
xntpd_program="xntpd"           # path to xntpd, if you want a different one.
xntpd_flags="-p /var/run/xntpd.pid"     # Flags to xntpd (if enabled).

Copy those entries to /etc/rc.conf and edit appropriately.
