Description

rdate(8) sets the clock of the local host to the time of another host.

OpenBSD's rdate is a much improved version of the original rdate(8) by Christos Zoulas. This version not only supports RFC 868, but also RFC 5905 (NTP, SNTP), which is now used by default. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.
