It seems to me that if you put a line like this in
your /etc/network/interfaces in the section associated
with your PPP connection you could sync your system
time whenever you brought the interface up:
up /etc/init.d/ntpdate restart || true
This does not address the issue of having that system
also serve NTP to your other machines, which might
get interesting if your server is frequently out of
touch with the outside world...
