%%short-description: Displays or sets the kernel time variable

%%full-description: This program gives you raw access to the kernel
time variables. For a machine connected tot he Internet, or equipped
with a precision oscillator or radio clokc, the best way to keep the
system clock correct is with xntpd. However, for a standalone
intermittently connected machine, you may use adjtimex instead to at
east correct for systematic drift. Adjtimex can optionally adjust the
system clock using the CMOS cloack as a reference, and can log times
for long-term estimation of the drift rates.
