- Isn't there a way to tell you r SGI to "call" an atomic clock somewhere
- and set the internal clock accurately?
-
- I know about the timeslave function, and it has an option -C which supposedly
- (according to the man page)
-
- " -C tty
- specifies the filename of a tty port, such as /dev/ttyd2, with a
- Precision Time Standards WWV receiver.
- "
-
- But how the heck do you get PTS WWV receiver running?
- (no man page...)
