I personally fire it up about once a week on the laptop by clicking an icon which simply runs

If you're only after adhoc/on-demand time-sync, why not just run ntpdate?
Well, a few reasons: First, I cannot find any good documentation. Second, it seems to do the same as ntp start. Third, it appears to be depricated from what I can find on google. Fourth, I still have to su to run it. Now, it would be nice if changing the system date/time on a single-user system could be made a non-root action. -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com linux - genuine windows replacement part
