RE: Re[2]: Why atomic time

Bob,

Should have specified. I think WorldTime, which I referenced will work on
all of those systems. I would make the central system W2K and have the
others sync to that, if that is possible. It is more of a robust system (if
you can call it that) than the others. Certainly don't need to throw
anything you have away.

Since all four systems are on a hub, should be easy to use the central
system as a means to sync the others. Referencing the Central IP address,
which you can get by just doing a "ipconfig" from a DOS window, in WorldTime
as the SYNC system.

Regards

Dennis

W2000, W98, W98ME, W95 are on the hub.  Just can't throw anything away.
