I haven't had a chance to read through this entire thread yet, but wanted to post this in case it helps someone. ntpd was working fine for me for a while, and then I started getting this exact same error. After a few weeks, I finally started troubleshooting and it turned out that I had, at some point, commented this out in my rc.conf defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" Everything else seemed to work fine (I use DHCP, so assume that it figured out the router from that). Once I uncommented that line, ntpd started working again. Maybe the netwait and/or dhcp sync would allow ntpd to work without having to specify a default router in rc.conf, but I haven't played with that yet.
