Solaris 9: How to set time/Synchronize
Hi,

I have 4 solaris 9(32-Bit) Sparc machines on the same subnet.
All 4 of them have different times( off by 10-15 mins).
I need to synchronize all 4 of them.

Please advise what I should do to sync them to the proper time, and with each other.

Thanks

What do you mean by response? Do you mean the output for the date command?
Try setting the TZ environment variable to the timezone that you want. Else, if you want to set a particular timezone at boot, you can set in the /etc/default/init file.
