Thank you both for the quick replies.
The answer to my problem is htpdate. I was searching for such an utility for
quite some time. I still have one problem, though. When installing Gentoo, I
probably chose the USA as my location. However, I'm located in CET (that is,
GMT+1). From htpdate, I

Hi Liviu,
it seems you're only allowed to access web, FTP and rsync services on
the Internet through your proxy. Both rsync and NTP use their own ports
