.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn rtime
function
consults the Internet Time Server at the address pointed to by
.Fa addrp
and returns the remote time in the
.Vt timeval
struct pointed to by
.Fa timep .
Normally, the
.Tn UDP
protocol is used when consulting the Time Server.
The
.Fa timeout
argument specifies how long the
routine should wait before giving
up when waiting for a reply.
If
.Fa timeout
is specified as
.Dv NULL ,
however, the routine will instead use
.Tn TCP
and block until a reply is received from the time server.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Rv -std rtime
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr timed 8
Now the biggest step: import the changes to the main RPC code. Note: you'll need to rinstalkl all your includes before compiling libc the next time you update your sources in order for all this to work.

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to track. The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment, like so; .\" $Id$ .\" If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines. Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted. Approved by: bde 1999-07-12 20:50:10 +00:00			`.\"`
