RE: iSeries Clock

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I wrote the SNTP client that I use.

It gets the current time from a time server and then does a CHGSYSVAL
to set the time.  (Is that the software or hardware clock?)
Of course, this means I can only set it to the nearest second...  good enough
for me.

It's been awhile since I've looked at it.... I don't know off the top of
my head if I can share it, I'd have to look it over.   Should I look?
