[comp.unix.ultrix] Adjusting the system clock

The time according to 'date' gets behind on my VAXStation II running
Ultrix 2.2.  The TOY clock has the correct time -- If I reboot
the system comes up with the correct time.  Is there a way or 
has anyone written a way to read the TOY clock with the system 
up so I can use it to adjust the system time?

[P.S. thanks for all the responses to my question about raw ethernet
packets.  The solution is to use the DLI facility documented in the
DECnet-Ultrix manuals.]
