See if you can find msntp I think I found it on Freshmeat? Its a bit
simpler, though you have to tinker a little with the Makefile to get it to
compile under Linux. Its an SNTP client (Simple Network Time Client) and is
certainly a lot smaller than xntpd (Which incidentally, isn't quite as bad
as it looks - try ./ntpdate timeserver from the command-line or run it
with chron.)
Dana Laude (I think it was) was kind enough to send me a copy of nist.pl a
perl script that will also go off and get the time and reset your system
clock. I'm in the wrong place at present - but will see if I can find it
for you.
