>>> >>> Why not synchronize by running ntpd? >> >> or rdate? > > sure if you know the host you are using as a reference is itself reliably > referenced! on Technical University near where i live they attached atomic clock time receiver (this signal is transmitted somewhere i don't know well this) to one of their suns, and it gives rdate and ntp protocol out. i use it on all my servers. of course - rsync may be imprecise because of TCP delays, but i don't need to have millisecond precision, precision below one minute is more than enough.
