I am having some trouble converting a POSIX UTC timestamp into a NTP timestamp. The former being from the epoch starting January 1, 1970 at 12AM and the latter being that of January 1 1900 12AM.
In summary my equation is this: /* Seconds between 1970 and 1900 (with 17 leap years) */ uint64_t epoch_difference = (365 + 17) * 24 * 60 * 60; uint64_t ntp_timestamp = (time(NULL) - epoch_difference) << 32; Unfortunately, when I interpret this value, I keep getting values in 2036. I know my version of time() is from the 1970 epoch. So I am a tad confused here. -Matt _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
