There is also the ntp suite of tools that can either do 1 shot time ajustments using ntpdate or can keep your system clock accurate to within a few tens of miliseconds once you give it time servers. You can also check out the time tools by DJB http://www.pobox.com/~djb if you are not online all the time.
