CLOCKDIFF(8)						 System Manager's Manual: iputils					      CLOCKDIFF(8)

NAME
clockdiff - measure clock difference between hosts SYNOPSIS
clockdiff [-o] [-o1] destination DESCRIPTION
clockdiff Measures clock difference between us and destination with 1 msec resolution using ICMP TIMESTAMP [2] packets or, optionally, IP TIMESTAMP option [3] option added to ICMP ECHO. [1] OPTIONS
-o Use IP TIMESTAMP with ICMP ECHO instead of ICMP TIMESTAMP messages. It is useful with some destinations, which do not support ICMP TIMESTAMP (f.e. Solaris <2.4). -o1 Slightly different form of -o, namely it uses three-term IP TIMESTAMP with prespecified hop addresses instead of four term one. What flavor works better depends on target host. Particularly, -o is better for Linux. WARNINGS
o Some nodes (Cisco) use non-standard timestamps, which is allowed by RFC, but makes timestamps mostly useless. o Some nodes generate messed timestamps (Solaris>2.4), when run xntpd. Seems, its IP stack uses a corrupted clock source, which is synchro- nized to time-of-day clock periodically and jumps randomly making timestamps mostly useless. Good news is that you can use NTP in this case, which is even better. o clockdiff shows difference in time modulo 24 days. SEE ALSO
