If so please point to man page or web site |

xntpd is generally considered to be a good solution. (BTW, its not an X application, despite the name)
See the NTP FAQ: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntpfaq/NTP-a-faq.htm [Edited by Neo on 01-19-2001 at 04:52 PM] |

I use both XNTPD & NTPDATE. The one a user chooses depends on their requirements (server, client, etc.) NTPDATE is much easier to install, run from a cronfile, etc.
XNTPD is more comprehensive, but more to install and configure; by far more complete. Selecting a utility depends on the application. If you want a simple way to sync with a NTP timeserver without too much thinking, use NTPDATE. On the other hand, if you want to be more of an NTP-expert, dive into the details of the more comprehensive distros. |
