Title: Set the System Time with Genesis
Post by: duesi on January 05, 2003, 11:12:41 AM

I've just encountered this little Problem
When i use an ntp server to get the time while going
online.. Genesis error ntp.metas.ch/daytime
is not found ! In MIAMI this works fine..
Please help because i like to use Genesis only..

I use Miami myself, so can't suggest much other than reading the AmiTCP/Genesis
docs to make sure you're entering time update settings correctly.

An alternative is to use a time sychroniser like FACTS from Aminet.
You can set it to run (as a hidden commodity) when Genesis goes online.

If you have a system clock speed problem caused by a GFX card like I do, you can
set FACTS to auto-update every set number of minutes.

I checked out the Genesis Manual
But there is no description how to enter the time
server...
In MIAMI I use ntp.metas.ch and it works...
Any idea how to enter the server in Genesis ?

Tried entering the actual IP adress? For that .ch server 193.5.216.14.
