TL;DR

htpdate

Synchronize local date and time via HTTP headers from web servers. More information: https://www.vervest.org/htp/.

  • Synchronize date and time:

sudo htpdate host

  • Perform simulation of synchronization, without any action:

htpdate -q host

  • Compensate the systematic clock drift:

sudo htpdate -x host

  • Set time immediate after the synchronization:

sudo htpdate -s host
