Tiniest little atomic clock sync program you know?

I'm looking for a tiny little no-frills Internet time server sync utility, preferably a command line one that I can schedule to run, sync, and terminate once a day.

I've sifted through piles and piles of these programs, and I can't find one that's as simple as I need. *sigh*

So here I am pesting a few hundred to a few thousand people. 😀 Know a good one?
 
i'd like one too. I could never get NTP to work and the only ones i have found have icons in the system tray.
 
banshee screamer alam is what i us. Wake up to your favorite mp3 AND have it be in sync with the atamic clock.
 
Speaking of clocks, are there any good free clocks that will replace the one in the windows system tray?
 
Guys, look no further than BSTime. It's a great atomic clock sync program that I've been using for the better part of this year and I love it. It's small, syncs on the minute to whatever server you want it to (time.nist.gov default), it stays out of the way, it's accurate with my real atomic alarm clock, and it's freeware. Check it out! 🙂
 
I wonder - how hard would this be to write in a Windows Shell script? I've only had a basic intro to WSH programming, but could someone else here comment? Basically, I think the flow would be something like this:

1. Setup environment / variables
2. Open port
3. Connect to time server
4. Read time
5. Compare to system time
6. Note difference
7. Repeat 3-6 again
8. Average differences
9. Reset system time
10. Close connection/port
11. End

Thoughts?
Edit: Here's a list of programs; most of them look to be GUI tho: Time Software
