[Rule-list] netdate

[Marco Fioretti]

netdate sounds really interesting.
Where does it come from? Does it exists in rpm form?

I've also modified:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post

to include the following:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
/usr/sbin/netdate -v tick.usno.navy.mil tock.usno.navy.mil
/sbin/clock -w

IP=`/sbin/ifconfig ppp0 | grep inet | cut -d ":" -f2 | cut -d " " -f1`
echo $DEVICE up IP $IP `date +"at %H:%M:%S %Z day %j of %Y   %s"`>>/var/log/ppplog

-----------------------------------------------------------------

netdate is only about 10k and it's nice to know my machine always has the correct time.
