NAME

       chronyc - command-line interface for chronyd

SYNOPSIS

       chronyc [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       chrony is a pair of programs for maintaining the accuracy of computer clocks.

       chronyc  is  a  command-line  interface program which can be used to monitor chronyd's performance and to
       change various operating parameters whilst it is running.

USAGE

       A detailed description of all commands supported by chronyc is available via the  documentation  supplied
       with the distribution (chrony.txt and chrony.texi).

OPTIONS

       A summary of the options supported by chronyc is included below.

       -h hostname
              specify hostname (default 127.0.0.1)

       -p port-number
              specify port-number

       -n     display raw IP addresses (don't attempt to look up hostnames)

       -4     resolve hostnames only to IPv4 addresses

       -6     resolve hostnames only to IPv6 addresses

       -m     allow multiple commands to be specified on the command line.  Each argument will be interpreted as
              a whole command.

       -f conf-file
              This option can be used to specify an alternate  location  for  the  configuration  file  (default
              /etc/chrony/chrony.conf). The configuration file is needed for the -a option.

       -a     With  this  option  chronyc  will  try  to  authenticate  automatically on start. It will read the
              configuration file, read the command key from the  keyfile  and  run  the  authhash  and  password
              commands.

       command
              specify command.  If no command is given, chronyc will read commands interactively.
