Accurate Timekeeping

[Thad P Floryan]

True; the UNIXpc, when left up 30+ days at a time, does tend to advance its
clock more than is desirable.

Several months ago I modified the "utc" program that was posted to, perhaps,
comp.sources.misc, to correct the problem.

I run the corrected version every Sunday morning; it calls the US Naval
Observatry in Washington, DC and adjusts BOTH the time-of-day-clock AND the
battery-backed real-time-clock.

I'll be posting this shortly to unix-pc.sources; been working the proverbial
25 hrs/day, 7 days/week recently and need to first catch up on the 50+ 
newsgroups to which I subsribe.
