The ntpdate command is useful for doing an initial date/time sync when the local time is too far off of the actual time reported by a time server. In such a case, ntpd will refuse to set the time: ntpdate is then necessary to get the clock back in sync. ntpd can then take over and sync the date/time with further accuracy. Is there equivalent functionality in another program to set the time regardless of how far off it is from the actual time? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.5.64.175 (talk) 15:15, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
