ntpdate -b ntp.cpsc.ucalgary.ca

a few times on the command line, and your time will be accurate enough.

I have it scheduled as a cron job that runs every once is a while on a few
older servers here.

More recently, I've been using NTP.  NTP is easy to get up and running if
you need something accurate over a longer term.
