TIMEDC(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 TIMEDC(8)

NAME

       timedc - timed control program

SYNOPSIS

       timedc [ command [ argument ... ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       Timedc is used to control the operation of the timed program.  It may be used to:

       o      measure the differences between machines' clocks,

       o      find the location where the master time server is running,

       o      enable or disable tracing of messages received by timed, and

       o      perform various debugging actions.

       Without	any  arguments,  timedc  will prompt for commands from the standard input.  If arguments are supplied, timedc interprets the first
       argument as a command and the remaining arguments as parameters to the command.	The standard input may be  redirected  causing	timedc	to
       read commands from a file.  Commands may be abbreviated; recognized commands are:

       ? [ command ... ]

       help [ command ... ]
	      Print  a	short  description of each command specified in the argument list, or, if no arguments are given, a list of the recognized
	      commands.

       clockdiff host ...
	      Compute the differences between the clock of the host machine and the clocks of the machines given as arguments.

       trace { on | off }
	      Enable or disable the tracing of incoming messages to timed in the file /usr/adm/timed.log.

       quit
	      Exit from timedc.

       Other commands may be included for use in testing and debugging timed; the help command	and  the  program  source  may	be  consulted  for
       details.

FILES

       /usr/adm/timed.log	tracing file for timed
       /usr/adm/timed.masterlog log file for master timed
