Hi all, As I'm not very experienced with DB technology, I'm very sorry if my question seems stupid.
I have set up a MySQL server as a central data repository where various clients are to write and read data concurrently. One of the attrbutes of the tables that are going to be managed by the MySQL is a TIMESTAMP. However, it is important to me that ALL clients use the same time source when they create records onto these tables. My question is: is it possible to use the clock of the MySQL machine as an unique time source for every table update ? I mean, can I simply leave to the MySQL server to automatically fill the TIMESTAMP attribute when new records are inserted ? Thnks for any help.
