+=head1 NAME
+
+Net::Time - time and daytime network client interface
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    use Net::Time qw(inet_time inet_daytime);
+
+    print inet_time();          # use default host from Net::Config
+    print inet_time('localhost');
+    print inet_time('localhost', 'tcp');
+
+    print inet_daytime();       # use default host from Net::Config
+    print inet_daytime('localhost');
+    print inet_daytime('localhost', 'tcp');
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<Net::Time> provides subroutines that obtain the time on a remote machine.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item inet_time ( [HOST [, PROTOCOL [, TIMEOUT]]])
+
+Obtain the time on C<HOST>, or some default host if C<HOST> is not given
+or not defined, using the protocol as defined in RFC868. The optional
+argument C<PROTOCOL> should define the protocol to use, either C<tcp> or
+C<udp>. The result will be a time value in the same units as returned
+by time() or I<undef> upon failure.
+
+=item inet_daytime ( [HOST [, PROTOCOL [, TIMEOUT]]])
+
+Obtain the time on C<HOST>, or some default host if C<HOST> is not given
+or not defined, using the protocol as defined in RFC867. The optional
+argument C<PROTOCOL> should define the protocol to use, either C<tcp> or
+C<udp>. The result will be an ASCII string or I<undef> upon failure.
