Hi, or does this mean that M$ is getting the authority for time normalisation, not any more the ISO (I think ISO should be the authority) ? What do they standardisize next time, the meter, will the M$-meter be 3 mm shorter than the ISO-meter or anything like this ?!

Just for jollies, I 'syncd' my linux box to time.windows.com. It talked a protocol acceptable to ntpdate, but it skewed my clock 193 seconds back!

So it appears that when Microsoft actually talks the same language as the rest of the world, they lie to you!
Thats about as precise as anything else in their software. ;-) -- _________________________________ John Andersen / Juneau Alaska -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-security-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-security-help@suse.com
