[plug] querying an ntp server

[Buddrige, David]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to set up a linux server to synchronise its time with
another machine using ntpd.  I have been going through the documentation
that I have been able to locate on the internet (there does not appear to be
a man page), and I _think_ I have it configured correctly.  However in order
to check that it is operating as normal, I need to be able to determine what
the ntp server's time is set to so that I can subsequently compare it with
the time on my local machine.  Unfortunately, I don't have a login on the
remote machine - it is on a client site on the other side of town.  Is there
a command that can be used to query the time on an ntp server?

thanks heaps in advance

David.
