sntpc is a simple network time protocol client

It was written to deal with time on virtual hosts on MS virtual server which
has a horrible virtual hardware clock.

It will not make any efforts to slowly adjust the time, just set the time hard
from an NTP source, either once or in a given interval.

To use it in a virtual environment, set the clocksource to "pit". This will
make the time go (mostly) backwards. Use the -b option to prevent sntpc to
make time jump backwards.
