Network Time

[roland_access]

I have produced a function in a database that relies on the time of a computer on a network. However, it is checking the code against the PC's time, and as all are not synchronised it is activating at varous times of each PC.

The network is based on Windows 98 machines, and all the time sync utilities i have seen are for NT.

Can anyone tell me how to return a different PC's time over a network, like the servers?

I know this is not directly answering your question, but in our NT network, we synch each PC's time to the time of the PDC of the network everytime someone logs into a PC. Even though the time of the PDC is not perfectly correct, all of the PC's show more or less the same time. Then your problem goes away before it occurs.

Thanks, but i dont think thats possible on a network run on Windows 98? Otherwise yes, that would certianly cure the problem
