I thought I had this in my /etc/rc.conf but didn't, so I added the
following lines and rebooted:

ntpdate_enable="YES"             # Run ntpdate to sync time on boot (or NO).
ntpdate_program="/usr/sbin/ntpdate"     # path to ntpdate, if you want a different one.
ntpdate_flags="-b clock.isc.org"              # Flags to ntpdate (if enabled).

My clock still says it is 20:11 PM when it is really 19:11 PM right now!

Am I missing something, or needing to set the CMOS/motherboard clock...?

I thought ntpdate had to be run manually or via a cron job. I have an ntpd running and it changed immediately after 2am.
