• Description:
  The rdate utility retrieves the date and time from another machine on
  your network, using the protocol described in RFC 868. If you run
  rdate as root, it will set your machine's local time to the time of
  the machine that you queried. Note that rdate isn't scrupulously
  accurate. If you are worried about milliseconds, install the xntp3
  package, which includes the xntpd daemon, instead.
