[CLUE-Tech] time server

[Match Grun]

Here is a script I use. Just use cron to fire up once a
day. There are several time servers you can use.

If you have more than one computer, I suggest you configure
one as a time server for the remaining machines. Only this 
one needs to synchronize with an external server.
