Sync. time

I have two debian server ( server A and server B ) , I would like to sync. the system time of them so that their system time is the same ( the server A is master , server B get the time from server A ) , I know I can setup NTP in server A , but as server A is critical server that I not am prefer to add module to it ( actually I tried to do it , but fail due to the library problem , I don't want to update the library anymore ) , can advise is there any other way to sync the system time ? thx

Re: Sync. time

You really should use NTP, but in that case, your other option is to use the ntpdate command in cron to keep the clock in sync.

Re: Sync. time

if you don't want to bother server A with an ntpd service then you could set up an ntp server from server B or just synchronize the time to an erxternal time source (an external ntp server)
