  2. Network Time Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol

    v. t. e. The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable- latency data networks. In operation since before 1985, NTP is one of the oldest Internet protocols in current use. NTP was designed by David L. Mills of the University of Delaware.

  3. chrony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrony

    chrony is an implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). It is an alternative to ntpd, a reference implementation of NTP. It runs on Unix-like operating systems (including Linux and macOS) and is released under the GNU GPL v2. [4] It is the default NTP client and server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 ...

  4. OpenNTPD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenNTPD

    Website. www.openntpd.org. OpenNTPD (also known as OpenBSD NTP Daemon) is a Unix daemon implementing the Network Time Protocol to synchronize the local clock of a computer system with remote NTP servers. It is also able to act as an NTP server to NTP-compatible clients. OpenBSD NTP Daemon was initially developed by Alexander Guy and Henning ...

  5. Clock synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_synchronization

    Clock synchronization is a topic in computer science and engineering that aims to coordinate otherwise independent clocks. Even when initially set accurately, real clocks will differ after some amount of time due to clock drift, caused by clocks counting time at slightly different rates. There are several problems that occur as a result of ...

  6. ntpd - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntpd

    The ntpd program is an operating-system daemon that sets and maintains a computer system's system time in synchronization with Internet-standard time servers.It is a complete implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 4, but retains compatibility with versions 1, 2, and 3 as defined by RFC 1059, RFC 1119, and RFC 1305, respectively. ntpd performs most computations in 64-bit ...

  7. Time synchronization in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_synchronization_in...

    GPS time synchronization. GPS receiver requirements. Minimum: GPS receiver that works with user chosen software; this requires some combination of GPGGA, GPRMC, GPZDA, GPGSA, and GPGSV sentences. This provides accuracy of between 1 and 2 seconds, and includes most, but not all modern GPS receivers. Better: USB GPS receiver with the NMEA 0183 ...

  8. Precision Time Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_Time_Protocol

    The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol for clock synchronization throughout a computer network with relatively high precision and therefore potentially high accuracy. In a local area network (LAN), accuracy can be sub-microsecond – making it suitable for measurement and control systems. [1] PTP is used to synchronize financial ...

  9. ntpdate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntpdate

    ntpdate is a computer program used to quickly synchronize and set computers' date and time by querying a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. It is available for a wide variety of unix-like operating systems.
