ntpd can be run in a 'set time once' mode with ntpd -q. so all you
need to do is have a way of running ntpd -q when you connect. dunno
what to do for that. perhaps if there is a connect script, you could
add a line to it or something.

as for getting ntpd configured right, i dont think there's much to it. 

i'm guessing this is the right way to do it. in /etc/ntp.conf:
   server 0.pool.ntp.org
   server 1.pool.ntp.org
   server 2.pool.ntp.org
apart from the other stuff.
