Is there a reason you are using ntpdate rather than ntpd? ntpdate is
supposedly deprecated and ntpd can do what ntpdate does:
-q Exit the ntpd just after the first time the clock is set. This
behavior mimics that of the ntpdate(8) program, which is to be
retired. The -g and -x options can be used with this option.
