xntpd is way to complicated. You have to set up all these parameters - how
many nanoseconds your machines takes to get the message from one to the
other ...

I use rdate - just one command, executed once a day by 'cron' and everybody
is happy. But then, I don't need to know what the time is, down to
1'000'000th of a fraction of a second. What is 10 minutes on a cosmic time
scale?

Best regards
Chris
