I'm using a cron job to synchronize time against a timeserver
in a local network. The timeserver is a NT box that has a DCF77 clock
attached.

I chose rdate (/usr/ports/sysutils/rdate) to do the synchronisation.

Does this also set the CMS clock correctly or what would I have to do to
set the cmos clock?
