Re: netdate missing in potato?

There's ntpdate which as the name suggests uses ntp and there's also rdate now 
which
utilizes the simpler FRC868 protocol.

netdate missing in potato?

I don't seem  to find netdate in potato. I am pretty sure it was there
in slink.
  Is there any replacement for it?

Not sure if I am not confusing netdate with something else but I believe you 
should check *ntp*, and chrony.

netdate used to be part of the netstd package in slink (may still be
for all I know), but I believe it was orphaned in potato (they
couldn't find the author, I seem to recall). Anyway take a look at
ntpdate, in the Debian package of the same name. It has the same
functionality.
