David....what I do, is have Linux update the system clock every
hour by automatically running a small shell script from the
/etc/cron.hourly directory. Here's the contents of my shell
script:
#! /bin/sh
rdate -s time.nist.gov
As root, create a text file and give it 717 permissions. Put
the above text in the file and put the file in the
/etc/cron.hourly directory. Linux will now take care of
updating the system clock every hour as long as you're on the
web.
