Maybe it's because I'm in South East Asia, I'll try to look around some more. Anyway, I'm happy with keeping my machines within say 1/4 seconds of UTC, considering that for many years the the company network (including scores of POS and DVR PCs) has been chugging along fine with just manual time adjustments.

If so, I would just check for presence of the string: "*203.117.180.36" (it's my government's public time server) _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
