> Yup.  The time server needs to know how to synch it's clock.  A minimum config uses one server directive.  A more complete server would choose two or more.  Your ISP probably has a couple time servers you can "chime" to. If not you might select a couple stratum 2 servers from the list at http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2.htm -Chris Fedde

It seems to me that with such simple or simply-functioned commands that
command line flags ought to suffice.  The minimum config of listing a
server ought to be similar to the ntpdate command line's usage :(
