|
is a NTP daemon that runs in the background and keeps the date and time synchronized based on response from configured NTP servers. It also functions as a NTP server. |
|
is a client program that sets the date and time based on the response from an NTP server. This command is deprecated. |
|
is used to query the NTP daemon about its current state and to request changes in that state. |

is an utility program used to monitor ntpd operations and determine performance. |
|
reads and displays time-related kernel variables. |
|
traces a chain of NTP servers back to the primary source. |
|
is a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client. |
|
reads, and optionally modifies, several timekeeping-related variables in older kernels that do not have support for precision timekeeping. |
