Description
I have installed ntp @4.2.7p476_1, without problem, but the system ntpd still runs, not this new one.

That's correct, MacPorts doesn't automatically disable (or enable) anything.

Alright, then how about putting in notes to tell how to switch from Apple's to MacPorts'?
bash-3.2# port notes ntp ntp has no notes. bash-3.2# port installed ntp The following ports are currently installed: ntp @4.2.7p476_1 (active) bash-3.2#

We don't provide that for all ports, but I'm not opposed to it (ie. patches welcome). Something like "don't have 'Set date and time automatically' checked in Date & Time of system preferences?" I believe instructions to run 'port load ntp' are already printed because of the startupitem generation (just not as notes).

That's helpful.
So, turning off set date and time automatically, and then trying to start it up
bash-3.2# port load ntp bash-3.2# ntpdc -s ^C bash-3.2# ps ax | grep ntp 24189 ?? Ss 0:00.00 /opt/local/bin/daemondo --label=ntp --start-cmd /opt/local/sbin/ntpd -n -g -p /opt/local/var/run/ntpd.pid -f /opt/local/var/db/ntp.drift -c /opt/local/etc/ntp.conf ; --restart-netchange --pid=exec 24190 ?? S 0:00.01 /opt/local/sbin/ntpd -n -g -p /opt/local/var/run/ntpd.pid -f /opt/local/var/db/ntp.drift -c /opt/local/etc/ntp.conf 24191 ?? S 0:00.00 /opt/local/sbin/ntpd -n -g -p /opt/local/var/run/ntpd.pid -f /opt/local/var/db/ntp.drift -c /opt/local/etc/ntp.conf 24195 s008 S+ 0:00.00 grep ntp bash-3.2# ntpdc -s localhost: timed out, nothing received ***Request timed out bash-3.2#
It shows that it started up, but I'm not getting anything.

trac isn't for support - please post to the mailing list (and/or the ntp mailing list) for help. (note that the conf file provided is fairly restrictive to help mitigate DDOS amplification participation - I usually use 'ntpq -p' to check the status of my ntpd).
That sounds normal to me. MacPorts will not cause Apple-provided services to stop running, nor start its own services without your explicit instructions so to do.
