This is the command ntpshmmon that can be run in the OnWorks free hosting provider using one of our multiple free online workstations such as Ubuntu Online, Fedora Online, Windows online emulator or MAC OS online emulator
PROGRAM:
NAME
ntpshmmon - capture samples from GPS or other ntpd refclock sources
SYNOPSIS
ntpshmmon [-c cycletime] [-h] [-n nsamples] [-s] [-t seconds] [-v] [-V]
DESCRIPTION
This program monitors the shared-memory segments updated by gpsd(8) (and possibly other
refclock sources) as a way of communicating with ntpd, the Network Time Protocol daemon.
It reads these in exactly the way an ntpd instance does. It can be run concurrently with
ntpd without interfering with ntpd's normal operation.
This program runs forever, or until a termination option is matched, or until interrupted,
generating sample reports to standard output. Each line consists of whitespace-separated
textual fields.
Here is an example of the beginning of a report file:
ntpshmmon version 1

The output always begins with a header line expressing the version of the output format;
the version line begins with "ntpshmmon version" and is followed by a numeric version
field.
The remainder of the file is either commments or sample lines. A comment line begins with
a # and should ignored by programs that interpret this format. This program never
generates such lines itself.
The fields of a sample line are as follows:
1. The keyword "sample"
2. The NTP unit from which it was collected.
3. Collection time of day, seconds.
4. Receiver time of day, seconds.
5. Clock time of day, seconds.
6. Leap-second notification status.
7. Source precision (log(2) of source jitter).
In these fields, "clock time" is the high-precision time measured by the source and
"receiver time" is Unix UTC time at the receiver. It is normal for the seconds part of
receiver time to coincide with the seconds part of collection time and for the nanoseconds
part of receiver time to be zero.
-v
Enable verbose status messages.
-c
Device poll interval in fractional seconds - defaults to 1.
-n
Set maximum number of samples to collect.
-s
Remove all segments specified by the units argument. This option will normally only be
of interest to GPSD developers.
-t
Set maximum time to collect samples in seconds.
-h
Display program usage and exit.
-V
Display program version and exit.
