rdate does not run  continually against multiple servers--that is,
it's only  a replacement for ntpdate  and not ntpd. If it  were, I
suspect  that most  people's reason  to use  ntp instead  of rdate
would go away. (I'm  assuming ``most people'' don't  use ntp keys,
either).

I'd offer to add this, but I'm afraid it's a bit over my head....
