If the drift is basically constant and you are not continuously
connected and thus not able to sync often, you can use adjtimex
to correct for systematic drift.
Also check the ntpd options, the threshold when the clock
is forced to the current time as opposed to the system clock
rate being adjusted is normally settable. From the ntpd manpage:
-x
Normally, the time is slewed if the offset is less
than the step threshold, which is 128 ms by default,
and stepped if above the threshold. This option
sets the threshold to 600 s, which is well within
the accuracy window to set the clock manually.
This is on Linux but I suppose there's an equivalent
for other unices too.
