---------------------------------------------------------------------
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) Client V1.03 is available now!
What this software does
-----------------------
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) Client connects to a time server through the
Internet, gets the current time and adjusts the clock of your OS/2 machine
using the system DATE function.
Version 1.03 supports both TIME and DAYTIME servers!
What you need
-------------
You need Warp V3 or Warp V4 with TCP/IP or the IBM Internet Access Kit
(IAK) installed to run this software.
Where can I install this NTP client
-----------------------------------
You can install this client on any OS/2 system which has access to the
Internet. If you are behind a SOCKS firewall, you can enable the general SOCKS
gateway of Warp 4 since this NTP client doesn't offer the usage of a SOCKS
gateway.
Most users install this NTP client on an OS/2 system running a LAN- Server.
All those clients (LAN-Requesters) adjust their time using the following
LAN-Requester command:
NET TIME \\SERVER01 /SET /YES
where 'SERVER01' is the name of your LAN-Server.
Download this software
