Yes. There cannot be. ntp is used to synchronize clocks where one is in Ulan Bator and the other if Ohio-- if they tried to use timezone info, this could not be done reasonably. Under many operating systems, the system clock is also in UTC making synchronization easy. Windows, following DOS decided to use local time, which causes may difficulties. ntp has to kludge it. >Regards >Deepak _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
