.PP
The default is to write the estimated correct local date and time (i.e. not
UTC) to the standard output in a format like
-.BR "'1996 Oct 15 20:17:25.123 + 4.567 +/- 0.089 secs'" ,
+.BR "'1996 Oct 15 20:17:25.123 +4.567 +/- 0.089 secs'" ,
where the
-.B "'+ 4.567 +/- 0.089 secs'"
+.B "'+4.567 +/- 0.089 secs'"
indicates the local clock is 4.567 seconds behind the correct time
(so 4.567 seconds must be added to the local clock to get it to be correct),
and the time of
is believed to be correct to within
+/- 0.089
seconds.
-.SH USAGE
-The simplest use of this program is as an unprivileged command to check the
-current time and error in the local clock. For example:
-.IP
-.B sntp ntpserver.somewhere
-.PP
-With suitable privilege, it can be run as a command or in a
-.I cron
-job to reset the local clock from a reliable server, like the
-.I ntpdate
-and
-.I rdate
-commands. For example:
-.IP
-.B sntp \-a ntpserver.somewhere
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The program returns a zero exit
-status for success, and a non-zero one otherwise.
-.SH BUGS
-Please report bugs to http://bugs.ntp.org .
