Greetings: Not really, but for those unfortunate enough to have a server they can't get time synchronization via xntp/ntp to work, here's a simple bash script you can use to keep the machine's time current:
#!/bin/sh #Tue Oct 30 21:12:14 MST 2001: Van; ntpdate doesn't want to build on this machine. #Here's a script to set the date correctly every night curdate=`/usr/local/bin/mysql -u whoami -pbigsecret -h timehost -e "select date_format(now(), '%m/%d/%y %H:%i:%s');" | grep -v 'now()'` /bin/date -s "$curdate" Tested on Slackware Linux 7/8.something-or-other...
