We mainly need to determine how we are going to use rdate:

Seems to me there needs to be a link with clock-setup as I guess
rdate
would set the time to UTC. So either clock-setup would need to
reset the
clock if "local time" is selected, or it would have to default to UTC
too.
We could even use rdate to guess if clock is set to local time or UTC
based on the difference between system time and rdate.
For countries with more than 1 timezone, I want to be able to set a
default
timezone for the system based on the offset between the system
clock and the
remote timeserver as well... :)
