One further possibility if you have an Appletalk/IP gateway such as a
K-box or Webster multiport is the timelord/tardis combination available
in the multigate directory on munnari.oz.au . Timelord is a control
panel application which runs as a server on Macs or on a Unix host with
the CAP libraries installed, and tardis is a chooser application which
sets the time at boot or any other time you call it up. Works in a Mac
like fashion, with multiple servers available per visible zone. But I
don't think you can set it up to run periodically by itself, which
would be useful.
