The s6-taiclockd program

s6-taiclockd is a server for the TAICLOCK protocol. It's a long-lived program listening to the network and answering to TAICLOCK clients such as s6-taiclock.

Interface

     s6-taiclockd [ -i ip ] [ -p port ]
  • s6-taiclockd listens to all network addresses on UDP port 4014.
  • Whenever it receives a TAICLOCK request, it answers immediately with the TAI time given by its local system clock.
  • It runs until killed by a signal.

Options

  • -i ip : bind to ip instead of all available addresses. ip can be IPv4 or IPv6.
  • -p port : bind to port port instead of 4014.
