    I can understand this.  But what the phrase "ntpdate does not discipline
the host clock frequency as does ntpd" means, once both ntpd and ntpdate use
adjtime()? I know ntpdate use this function when offset <128ms, so why i
cannot to say that ntpdate discipline the host clock frequency ? Just
because ntpdate synchronize and exits ?

Tanks again !

ntpd disciplines the clock frequency continuously. ntpdate makes a temporary adjustment of the clock frequency to correct the time. Once the clock has been set or slewed to the correct time, ntpdate does nothing more.
