I use this command for checking if the clock is getting synced and |
| 20 |
accurate, enough. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
ntpdate -b -u -q pool.ntp.org |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
If it happens to be way off, I remove the -q option and it will set the |
| 25 |
clock, rather abruptly tho. Someone posted that command for me AGES ago |
| 26 |
so figured I would pass it on. ;-) |
