Answer 1

Thanks for the replies.
What I did was,
1. I install meinberg ntp software application on windows 7 pc. (softros ntp server is also possible.)
2. change raspberry pi ntp.conf file (for auto update date and time)

server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx iburst
server 1.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 3.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst

3. If you want to make sure that date and time update at startup run this python script in rpi,

import os

try:
    client = ntplib.NTPClient()
    response = client.request('xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', version=4)
    print "===================================="
    print "Offset : "+str(response.offset)
    print "Version : "+str(response.version)
    print "Date Time : "+str(ctime(response.tx_time))
    print "Leap : "+str(ntplib.leap_to_text(response.leap))
    print "Root Delay : "+str(response.root_delay)
    print "Ref Id : "+str(ntplib.ref_id_to_text(response.ref_id))
    os.system("sudo date -s '"+str(ctime(response.tx_time))+"'")
    print "===================================="
except:
    os.system("sudo date")
    print "NTP Server Down Date Time NOT Set At The Startup"
    pass

I found more info in raspberry pi forum.
