rdate(ADMN)
rdate --
notify time server that date has changed
Syntax
rdate
Description
rdate notifies
timed(ADMN)
that the system date has changed. If the local time server
is a master, it will notify all of the slaves that the time
has changed. If it is a slave, it will request that the
master update the time.
rdate should be run whenever root sets
the date with
date(C).
A shell script such as the following could be used to do
both automatically.
: # # mv /bin/date /bin/s5date # install as /bin/date #
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin s5date $* rdate
