I've had ntpdate_enable="TRUE" in my rc.conf forever and run chronyd rather than ntpd. The way the world is now we ought to have a roughtime implementation to replace ntpdate. I'd write or import one but don't have the time or the crypto knowledge to do it right. -- We build our computer systems the way we build our cities; over time, without a plan, on top of ruins. — Ellen Ullman
