Gee, if it's that simple, a ntpconfig command that might be as simple as: #!/bin/sh $EDITOR /etc/ntp.conf wouldn't be an unreasonable expectation. Especially if the /etc/ntp.conf file contains germane comments. How about the following for a start. # /etc/ntp.conf - the xntp daemon configuration file # to allow xntp to syncronize with other time servers whenever you're # connected to the net, remove the leading # character from two or # more of the following lines: logfile /var/log/xntpd driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift statsdir /var/log/ntpstats/ statistics loopstats peerstats clockstats filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enabled filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable #server black-ice.cc.vt.edu #server churchy.udel.edu #server louie.udel.edu #server clock.psu.edu #server clock-2.cs.cmu.edu # a reference to a resource for determining available servers # would be lovely here - if I only had a brain! > > Jonas Bofjall wrote: > > > > I'd like to set a computer's hwclock periodically using NTP. > > I've installed the xntp .deb.
