SYNOPSIS

       ntpstat

DESCRIPTION

       ntpstat  will  report  the  synchronisation  state  of the NTP daemon running on the local

       ntpstat will report the approximate time accuracy.

RETURNS

       ntpstat  returns  0  if  clock  is  synchronised.   ntpstat  returns  1  if  clock  is not
       synchronised.  ntpstat returns 2 if clock state is indeterminant, for example if  ntpd  is
       not contactable.
