OPTIONS

29       A summary of the options supported by chronyc is included below.
30
31
32       -h hostname
33              specify hostname (default 127.0.0.1)
34
35       -p port-number
36              specify port-number
37
38       -n     display raw IP addresses (don't attempt to look up hostnames)
39
40       -4     resolve hostnames only to IPv4 addresses
41
42       -6     resolve hostnames only to IPv6 addresses
43
44       -m     allow multiple commands to be specified  on  the  command  line.
45              Each argument will be interpreted as a whole command.
46
47       -f conf-file
48              This option can be used to specify an alternate location for the
49              configuration file (default /etc/chrony.conf). The configuration
50              file is needed for the -a option.
51
52       -a     With  this option chronyc will try to authenticate automatically
53              on start. It will read the configuration file, read the  command
54              key from the keyfile and run the authhash and password commands.
55
56       command
57              specify command.  If no command is given, chronyc will read com‐
58              mands interactively.
