[sf-perl] remote host time

[Richard Reina]

Yes the remote hosts are running ntpd. I have a basic script that
periodically pings each host and let's me know that everybody is up and
running.  Sometimes ntp on some of the machines runs astray and I wanted to
have that script also tell me the time and date on each machine.
