C. ntpdate queries one or more NTP time servers and adjusts the system time accordingly. The ntpdate command is a simple client utility for the Network Time Protocol (NTP) that is used to synchronize the time on a local system with a remote NTP time server. The basic syntax for the ntpdate command is as follows: ntpdate <server_name> where <server_name> is the hostname or IP address of the NTP server to query. When run, ntpdate sends a request to the specified NTP server and calculates the offset between the local system time and the time reported by the server. If the offset is greater than a certain threshold, ntpdate will adjust the system time to match the time reported by the NTP server
