rtime(3)							      rtime(3)

NAME
       rtime - Get remote time

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <netinet/in.h>

       int rtime(
	       struct sockaddr_in *addrp,
	       struct timeval *timep,
	       struct timeval *timeout );

DESCRIPTION
       The  rtime()  function consults the Internet Time Server at the address
       pointed to by addrp and returns the remote time in the  timeval	struct
       pointed to by timep. Normally, the UDP protocol is used when consulting
       the Time Server. The timeout parameter specifies how long  the  routine
       should  wait  before  giving up when waiting for a reply. If timeout is
       specified as NULL, however, the routine will instead use TCP and	 block
       until a reply is received from the time server.

RETURN VALUES
       The routine returns 0 if it is successful. Otherwise, it returns -1 and
       errno is set to reflect the cause of the error.
