I've seen the "sendto... no route to host" error myself, although I'm
not sure if you are seeing the same behavior I was. In my case, my
external interface was a Netgraph tunnel interface (ng0) ports/net/mpd
which would sometimes die at the hands of my Internet provider. When the
tunnel would die and then get rebuilt, ntpd would give this error
because it was still bound to the old tunnel. My fix was to create an
mpd startup script that would restart ntpd whenever ng0 was recreated.

In any case, perhaps it is due to your Internet connection not being
available when ntpd starts? You could verify that your time is still
being synced by running ntpdc at the command line, then running "peers"
at the prompt.
