ntp is designed exactly for that.
Do you want a one-time piece of code to fetch time/date from a local server or do you want to keep the system clock in sync with a network time server?

Consider doing some reading - www.ntp.org

xntpd or ntpd may already be part of your system.

Some systems come with /usr/bin/ntpdate which does the onetime fetch and time set. Check yours.
