Sorry, but no. rdate != ntp.
From "man rdate":
rdate connects to an RFC 868 time server over a TCP/IP network, printing
the returned time and/or setting the system clock.
As opposed to "man ntpd":
It is a complete implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP)
version 4, but also retains compatibility with version 3, as defined by
RFC-1305, and version 1 and 2, as defined by RFC-1059 and RFC-1119,
respectively.
