Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers ksh to check second time difference between two servers Post 302815505 by depam on Saturday 1st of June 2013 02:46:33 AM

Thanks a lot for all your replies. Its an interesting note to take a look at dsh, that will help a lot on retrieval of system information which can be run on parallel. Apparently, our Security Group, wouldn't allow us to use it due to some "security" concerns but its is best to use this tool somewhere else or other environment.

What I did for now is to create a script and like what other folks suggested, use epoch time as the baseline and do public key authentication to remote servers one by one and compare the date and time. There will be a second delayed so I put in my script to check clock times which are more than 3 seconds or less than 0 second and assume that time is not sync.

NAME
nwfstime - Display / Set a NetWare server's date and time SYNOPSIS
nwfstime [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -s ] DESCRIPTION
nwfstime displays a NetWare server's date and time. You can also set a NetWare server's date and time from the local time. OPTIONS
-h With -h nwfstime prints a little help text. -S server is the name of the server you want to use. -U user user is the user name to use for login. To set the server's time, you need supervisor privileges. -P password password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwfstime prompts for a password. -n -n should be given if no password is required for the login. As you need supervisor privileges for setting the date and time, this option is probably not used very often. -C By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C. -s With -s, nwfstime sets the file server's date and time according to the local date and time. nwfstime 12/10/1996 NWFSTIME(1)
