clock show

clock show [dts_entity] [-dtsd | -inetd | -dced]

Options

-dced
Use dced services instead of DTS to report the time.

-inetd
Use inetd socket connections instead of DTS to report the time.

-dtsd
Use DTS services to report the time.

Description
The clock show operation returns a DTS style timestamp with the TDF indicated. Use the dts_entity argument to specify a remote host on which to show the clock.

Two options let you specify that the time should be returned without using DTS services:

· The -dced option specifies that dced services should be used instead of DTS services

· The -inetd option specifies that inetd socket connections should be used instead of DTS

Privileges Required
You must have r (read) permission on the clock object /.:/hosts/hostname/dts-entity if using DTS to show the time, otherwise no special privileges are required.
