Does anyone know of any time sync software that will keep the clock on a RH 7.2 machine in sync with the Atomic Clock?
Thanks
Dave

Did you look at the thing called "Start Here"?

Gnome has it, what wm/de are you using?

I did not find what I was looking for in Gnome, the name of the App would be a Help.

All I found was a way to manually set the date and time that's not what I'm asking about..
the software I want is one that automatically adjusts the time and syncs it with the NIST Time Server.

Yes, we use NTP to do that on Linux. It's quite easy to set up, uses few resources, and works whether you are connected 24X7, or intermittently. I did a little page on setting that all up at: http://www.raymondjones.net/ntpguide.html
It's RedHat and Debian centric, but other distros will be very similar. GL.

It's under system settings, I think. Click around some in those utilities or read the manual
