Begin3 Title: getdate_rfc868 Version: 1.2 Entered-date: 17OCT98 Description: Query an RFC 868 time server and adjust/set local date/time. Useful for querying and copying the date/time from other Internet hosts. Will work correctly across time zones. Uses the UNIX adjtime() call so that it can be safely set up as a cron job. Can reject hosts that respond slowly, or that vary too greatly from the local time. V1.1 fixes minor bugs and errors in the man page.
