I have a question that I've never seen answered. With all the discussions of sysplex timers and now SNTP lately, I don't understand one thing about SNTP. When you go out on the internet to a trusted time source, how do you account for the time between the time source getting the request, and the correct time coming back to your machine? I know there is latency there. Depending on traffic, the time over the network can vary. How is that accounted for in setting the exact time?
