.TH SNTP 8 .SH NAME sntp \- simple network time protocol client .SH SYNOPSIS .B ip/sntp [ .B -di ] [ .I server ] .SH DESCRIPTION .I Sntp is a simple client for the Simple Network Time Protocol (RFC1361). It requests the time from the SNTP service on .I server (default: .BR udp!$ntp!ntp ), and if it receives a plausible reply, sets the local time accordingly, in both .IR rtc (3) and .BR /dev/time . The .B -d option prints debugging text, including the time received; the .B -i option stops .I sntp from actually updating the local time. .SH FILES .B #r/rtc .br .B /dev/time .SH SOURCE .B /appl/cmd/ip/sntp.b .SH SEE ALSO .IR date (1), .IR cons (3)
