This is not what I meant. Of course, if you have many machines, that is a better solution (e.g. here our routers broadcast the time, so we sync to them), but what I had more in mind is the home user, which has 1-2 computers. Setting up NTP server there is :
a) overkill b) quite tricky if you do not know what you are doing
Running ntpdate from time to time to keep the system clock from running completely out of whack is enough in such situation. Adding this to Drakconf would be a big help.
