ntpdate-like functionality in ntpd

[Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia]

Hello all,

Is there a way to make ntpd work just like ntpdate (just use the first
response received to set the time)? This is to set the approximate
time at boot as quickly as possible before starting other time sensitive
services.

The closest I can get is ntpd -nqp <server> but this seems to need
5 valid samples in order to set the time.

Thank you,

Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia
