If I recall correctly, ntpdate is not a daemon that continues to run in the 
background.

Webconf normally looks for a background daemon to tell if a process is 
running.  An exception needs to be made for ntpdate.

It looks like your system is working correctly, webconf's reporting is broken. 
I'll post a fix - if you want I can notifiy you directly, or you can wait for 
the next release of Bering uClibc.

Thanks for reporting this!
