However, netdate does not change the BIOS clock along with the system clock so each time my machine is rebooted (which is often right now, nasty memory leak somewhere) the clock is out of sync again. This is also happening on my laptop. How can I set the BIOS clock from inside Linux and is there a time syncing program which can poll other machines and do this?
I use 'hwclock --systohc' to set the BIOS clock to the current system time. I have a ntp server and I sync clients using rdate (since I'm not concerned with millisecond accuracy) nightly in cron.
