I'm running a PClone/386 diskless using Excelan TCP/IP and Beame & Whiteside NFS over an Ethernet. Quite often when attempting to save a file my word processor complains that someone has modified a file it is editing. I've been told by Carl Beame (our NFS vendor) the problem is that the clocks on the PClone and the Sun fileserver are out of synch. Since both clocks drift, and at different rates, I'm looking for a program which can be run by the PClone at boot to query the Sun for its time, and then set the local clock accordingly. Is there such a program? Is there a public domain version? If so, where can it be found? Please email any replies, as I can't cover all these groups very often. Thanks to all for your help. -- - Steve Mitchell steve@cps.altadena.ca.us grian!steve@elroy.jpl.nasa.gov ames!elroy!grian!steve "God is licht, an in him there is nae mirkness ava." -- 1 John 1:5
