!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WARNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The ntpdate program is deprecated and should not be used any more. To
quote the upstream ntp developers:
"The functionality ntpdate offered is now provided by the ntpd daemon
itself. If you call ntpd with the command line option -q it will
retrieve the current time and set it accordingly."
Please check the Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon man page and
http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Dev/DeprecatingNtpdate
for further information.
You can replace the ntpdate call with "rcntp ntptimeset" to achieve an
inital poll of the servers specified in /etc/ntp.conf.
The program /usr/sbin/sntp offers comparable functionality to ntpdate.
Specifically
sntp -P no -r pool.ntp.org
is equivalent to
ntpdate pool.ntp.org
For further details please refer to the man page of sntp.
