"service ntpd restart" should do it. Note that if the the time is too
far off, nptd can't resync. You should make sure you list the time
servers in /etc/ntp/step-tickers. If you do that, the startup code
will use ntpdate to set the time correctly before attempting to start
the daemon. Normally this matters only at bootup time, since once
the daemon is running properly, it will keep time synchronized properly.
In the step-tickers file, you can just list the servers, separateed
by spaces, e.g.:
server1 server2 server3
