My high-tech solution to NTPDATE (et.al.) running before the link was up 
was to edit /etc/rc.d/NETWORKING and append these two lines at the 
bottom of the file:

======
/bin/echo "Waiting 10s for network link to wake up."
/bin/sleep 10
======

This has solved this startup problem in all the cases where it had 
previously been a problem.
