ntp server - anyone done it?

[Scott]

Here is the script that I use nightly.

#!/bin/sh
echo "Current date and time: `date`"
timehosts=ntp2.usno.navy.mil
if /usr/sbin/ntpdate -ub $timehosts > /dev/null; then
/sbin/hwclock --systohc
echo "Updated date and time: `date`"
fi

NT makes anything simple, easy, and anything difficult to do, impossible.
Unix makes anything easy to do difficult, and anything difficult to do,
possible.  Basically, if your VCR is still flashing "12:00" then unix is not
for you!
