FROM the sntpclock manpage:
================================
sntpclock limits the adjustment to 2 days.
================================

If your local clock differs from the sntpclock result by more than 2 days
sntpclock will fail
Propably with the mesg: "sntpclock: fatal: time uncertainty too large"....

regards Uffe
