Package: rdate
Version: 1:1.10-4
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: ar...@akk.org

Dear Maintainer,

In the manpage of rdate:
...
"-u     Use UDP instead of TCP as transport."
...

but if you use the "-n" you also forced to use UDP-packets.

it would be nice if the manpage would mention that.

like RFC 5905: SNTP use UDP-datagram, even if the IANA assigned 123
UDP/TCP for that.
