clockspeed: clockspeed - system clock synchronisation utilities 1
Package available in: [trunk] [8.0] [7.0] [6.0] [2.1]
clockspeed uses a hardware tick counter to compensate for a persistently fast or slow system clock. Given a few time measurements from a reliable source, it computes and then eliminates the clock skew.
sntpclock checks another system's NTP clock, and prints the results in a format suitable for input to clockspeed. sntpclock is the simplest available NTP/SNTP client.
taiclock and taiclockd form an even simpler alternative to SNTP. They are suitable for precise time synchronization over a local area network, without the hassles and potential security problems of an NTP server.
Note: This version of clockspeed can use the Pentium RDTSC tick counter or the Solaris gethrtime() nanosecond counter.
