[TriLUG] Best NTP Client for Linux

[Chris Knowles]

Many distributions have the NTP package (RH has an ntp rpm as part of
the install)

there's a quick little program you can run as part of that package.

ntpdate <server> 

This will sync your date/time with the <server>

Also, many distros have the NTP settings available as part of the time
change GUI.  (RH9 does anyway)
