TSYNC(1) XR32 REFERENCE MANUAL 24/1/2013
COMMAND
TSYNC -- Synchronise Time using Internet Time Server.
SYNOPSIS
TS[ync] <ipaddr>
AVAILABILITY
Sysop-only.
DESCRIPTION
The TSYNC command causes XR32 to synchronise the PC time with
an Internet TIME server.
It is doubtful whether this ancient DOS-XRouter function has
any purpose on a Windows platform, since Windows contains
tools to do the same job more effectively.
OPTIONS
The only required option is the IP address of an RFC-868 TIME
server. Hostnames are not acepted in this field. A list of
TIME servers is available on the nist.gov web site.
If no options are supplied, a syntax reminder is displayed.
EXAMPLE
TS 129.6.15.28
CAVEATS
This command may set your PC clock to the wrong timezone if
the TZ environment variable is not set correctly.
NIST plans to phase out RFC-868 TIME servers in April 2013,
in favour of NTP (Network Time Protocol) servers, although
there may still be a few servers operated by other
organisations.
