You may consider using NTP or rdate (found in the netstd package).

The xntpd daemon implements NTP, allowing Unix systems to participate in this synchronization. . NTP was designed with attention to details which might introduce systematic bias into the computations, and the protocol is capable of synchronizing with even the most precise external time sources. . The NTP protocol supported by xntpd is defined in RFC's 1059, 1119, and 1305 for versions 1, 2, and 3, respectively. For more information on how NTP works, and how to configure a campus of xntpd daemons, load the optional Debian package 'xntp3-doc'.
