SNTP over the Israeli servers only, nearest to Jerusalem first: the National Physical Laboratory's ntp.ac.il, the atomic clocks of Israel Standard Time, then the Hebrew University, then Tel Aviv, Petah Tikva, Haifa, then the Israeli pool. The first one that answers wins. Four questions each, the fastest round trip is believed. Answers that are not from a server, unsynchronized, a kiss of death, or from an address we did not ask, are not believed. Glowies. The result goes to sys_clock_adj, RAM only, never the CMOS. Once.HC runs Ntp at boot after the network, NtpDaemon asks again every six hours without a word on the screen. NtpRep says who answered and how far off the RTC was. Tested in QEMU with the RTC set to 2020-01-01: at boot the Israeli pool answered (stratum 2, following the Hebrew University), Now() matched the host's UTC to the second, the bare RTC still read 2020, and sys_clock_adj=0 put the Temple back in 2020 until Ntp ran again.
