How do you read server time on a Novell 4.X server
Yes, the login sync was working, but changing the clock is so easy in
Win '95 after login. I figured it out though - All I had to do was use
use VB to start a Novell utility called SYSTIME.EXE from the public
directory and that automatically sets the workstation to the server
time. Then it was just a matter of putting the shell statements right
before time critical recording code :
Shell ("F:\public\systime.exe"),0
and then terminating the shell program so it does not clog up the task
manager!
Thanks for your help anyway though.
