Martin, I suspect your idea only works in cases when the time server is instantaneously jamming time to a stateless client. But there is often some level of filtering and so the client will necessarily lag the server. In this case the client will not have accurate UTC until many time constants after midnight. /tvb _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
