Hmmm. Ok, this method probably does the equivalent of running ntpdate at regular intervals, and doesn't run ntpd at all. There's nothing wrong with that if that's what you want, but it's obviously mutually exclusive with running ntpd. ntpdate refuses to set the time while ntpd is running btw, and for very good reason. If you do want to run ntpd, use your distro's provided method to set this up. Ok if that is KDE, but on SUSE, setting up anything with KDE that can be set up with yast is almost always a very bad idea(TM).
