Description:
when ntpd is started after ntpdate it fails because ntpdate is still running in background.

removing the '&' in the rc.d script fixes the issue.

IMHO, if somneone wants this process to run in the background he/she should add an '@' to the daemon in rc.conf

Additional info:
* package version(s)
ntp 4.2.6.p3-2

* config and/or log files etc.
in rc.conf:
DAEMONS=(... network ... ntpdate ntpd ...)

Steps to reproduce:
1. start ntpdate
2. immediately, start ntpd
ntpd fails
This task depends upon
