# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
|
||
|
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
|
||
|
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
|
||
|
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
|
||
|
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
|
||
|
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

netdate:
|
||
|
netdate: Netdate takes a list of names of Internet hosts as arguments, selects
|
||
|
netdate: the one which supplies the best time, and sets the system time
|
||
|
netdate: accordingly. The invoker must be the super-user for the time to be
|
||
|
netdate: set. Protocol names (either udp or tcp) may be interspersed with the
|
||
|
netdate: host names, and determine the protocol which will be used to connect
|
||
|
netdate: to the hosts whose names follow, up to the next protocol name or the
|
||
|
netdate: end of the arguments. The default protocol is udp.

netdate:
|

|
netdate: These days, "ntpdate" is probably a better choice.
