Description-en: Measure the time difference between networked computers
Clockdiff computes the difference between the time of the machine on
which it is called and the time of other network-accessible machines.
The time differences measured by clockdiff are obtained using a
sequence of ICMP TSTAMP messages which are returned to the sender by
the IP module in the remote machine.
