 system time and frequency, but in some cases this might not be
 practical. With the +-q+ option +ntpd+ operates as in continuous mode,
 but exits just after setting the clock for the first time. Most
-applications will probably want to specify the +iburst+ option with the
-+server+ command. With this option a volley of messages is exchanged to
-groom the data and set the clock in about ten seconds. If nothing is

-setting the clock.

 Various internal +ntpd+ variables can be displayed and configuration

 When +ntpd+ starts it looks at the value of umask(2), and if
 zero +ntpd+ will set the umask(2) to 022.
