ntpdate in crontab

How often are you guys having this run? Right now i'm at every 30 minutes but I dont think its working good enough, i was considering bumping it to every 5 minutes. Thoughts?

If you need to do it more than once an hour you should really take the time to fully set up the ntpd daemon on your system. ntpd constantly runs and keeps your system date accurate to the master timing source at all times.
