I'm having trouble syncing my computer's clock with "ntp".

I had this issue before, so I followed exactly the steps I've discovered prior, inputting the appropriate arguments with 66-env: https://forum.obarun.org/viewtopic.php?pid=7716# p7716

However, ntp still refuses to sync my clock. Weird that it used to work a year ago, but not now on a fresh install!

Checking the logs with "66-inservice -v 3 ntpd" gave me the below output:

Notice that there's a "format error frequency file /etc/ntp/ntp.conf" entry, which I suspect is causing the issue.

However, I'm clueless how to solve this, as external resources focus on systemd instead of 66.

Below is my conf, displayed with "66-env -e nano ntpd":

cmd_args=!-n -q -g -u ntp:ntp

conf_file=!/etc/ntp/ntp.conf
