What the client does in that case is to check if the file has still the same

not, a conflict file is generated. Unfortunately, two computers often have a
time offset between each other. That is still not much of a problem, BUT if
that time difference is not constant over time, it becomes more likely that
wrong conflicts are generated. So a good hint is to keep times of all
involved machines accurate by using ntp.


I see, thanks for the explanation :)

As Michael have pointed out above, I think it will be better to have a time sync
feature between client and oc server. It's ok for geeks to configure ntp
themselves, but that will make oc client not work out of box for non-geek users.

Or maybe have an alarm message popup when clients detects that they are out of
sync with OC server? Then users can adjust their system time accordingly.

would not it be better that the OC client manages itself away time and take it into account automatically?
