Ensuring System Clock Accuracy

To facilitate the correlation of date and time stamps in log files with those of other
computer systems, keep your system clock reasonably in sync. As the NET TIME

system configuration, either a TCP/IP based NTP client should be installed (such
as the shareware program Tardis), or a time radio receiver attached. See
