I just wish i had discovered this earlier - i can automate so much  
stuff now 😃

# Syncronize my winxp clock with server’s

require ‘rubygems’  
require ‘net/ssh’

Net::SSH.start( ‘servidor’, ‘hugo’ ) do |session|  
input, output, error = session.process.popen3( “date +%H:%M:%S” )  
exec "time " + output.read  
end
