Besides,
This is working because ntpdate is invoked only once at startup, which is, in my case, because of possible empty BIOS-Battery where the date would be wrong for several years which causes ntpd to refuse to adjust the time. I use generally ntpdate at startup before ntpd keeps the kernel time in sync. -Mano > if you plan to run xntpd anyway, just set xntpd_flags="-g" and it will > behave the same as ntpdate at startup, as well as running continually > to ensure your clock stays synced.
