If something goes wrong, your file timestamps can be bogus too. You can't really trust them any more than the system time. I experienced this personally when my GPS got the wrong year (possibly wrong century, probably due to issues I'll discuss in the other thread?). I have a specific proposal that I'll hopefully write up tonight, which may address the needs in this space. -- Richard _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
