One workable option (possibly not the best, but effective) would be to add a call to "rdate -s time.nist.gov" in your connection script.
You might also be able to run ntpd, but I'm not sure how well that works on a mostly unavailable connection. -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Bowman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 12:37 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [uug] Syncing time with internet Since installing Gentoo the clock seems to be losing time. This wasn't a problem under Red Hat (Gentoo is still better). What methods have you found to be the most effective for updating the clock from the internet, when the computer is only connected once or twice a day, if that? ---- Ryan Bowman The only vim command you ever need to learn - :q (I won't be in vim long enough for :wq) "When did stupidity become an opinion?"
