I found several sites Not sure what "istant time" is. Youcould install ntp on your own machine and it would then keep the clock on your own system "accurate". (Note that AFAIK windows does not keep time to any better than about 1/10 of a sec. You cannot read it to msec. Note that your eyes and brain cannot process the time to better than 1/10 of a sec, and your reaction time is not better than that, so you could not read a remote machine and get anything better than 1/10 sec resolution) Some servers will respond to an rdate request, although that process is pretty much died. >where I may read hh.mm.ss then downloading the page and reading it I could >get the string hh.mm.ss but >1) I'm afraid this is not the fastest way to get istant time (isnt' it >possible somethingh like tcp to any port to any server to receive the answer >?) >2) sites I found give only hh.mm.ss, not hh.mm.ss.xxx You want this for what purpose? _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
