+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+sntpc [**-bhnv**] [**-p** *port*] [**-s** *server*] [**-t** *threshold*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+**sntpc** queries an NTP server for the current time, and sets the
+local clock to the time reported by the server. It's a standalone
+binary, with no config file and no dependency on the *ntp* package.
+
+**sntpc** does not run as a daemon like **ntpd** does. To keep
+the time in sync, you can run **sntpc** from root's **crontab**\(1)
+every 30 minutes (or however often it's necessary).
+
+**sntpc** requires root access to actually set the local clock,
+although it can be run with **-n** by non-privileged users (e.g. with
+**-v** to simply check the local time against the server's time).
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+-b
+  Allow time shift backwards (default: forward only).
+
+-h
+  Show built-in help message.
+
+-n
+  No set time (dry run).
+
+-p
+  Set server port number (default: 123).
+
+-s
+  Set server name or IPv4 address (default: pool.ntp.org).
+
+-t
+  Set maximum time offset threshold (default: 300 seconds). This can
+  be set to a ludicrously high value such as 40000000000 (over 1,000 years)
+  to effectively disable the threshold.
+
+-v
+  Verbose (default: silent)
