In general, most of the people on this list consider ntpdate from cron to be a second class solution. It might be good enough for you. ntpdate is depricated. sntp should probably used instead. >Try starting ntpd AFTER the network is available! If your ntpd is new enough, the "dynamic" keyword on the server line will dance around network changes. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
