Windows Server: Configuring as a Ntp Network Time ServerAuthor: Richard n Williams Precision and time synchronisation is highly important for modern computer networks, without synchronisation many time sensitive transactions would be impossible to carry out. The internal clock in computers does keep time and date information but these Real Time Chips are not designed to keep perfect time as computers are mass produced and optimized for low cost rather than being perfect clocks. Of course for a lot of applications this can be more than adequate but for time-sensitive transactions such as online purchasing not having a network that is synchronised can cause errors in transactions and can even leave the network vulnerable to fraud. Fortunately Windows Server from 2000 onwards has a time synchronisation utility built in call windows time (w32time.exe) this can be configured to allow the machine to be used as time server. Windows time uses a form of NTP (Network Time Protocol) which was developed over 20 years ago. It uses an algorithm to synchronise time on a network. NTP (version 4) can maintain time over the public Internet to within 10 milliseconds (1/100th of a second) and can perform even better over LANs with accuracies of 200 microseconds (1/5000th of a second) under ideal conditions. NTP uses a single time reference and synchronises all machines on the network to that time.

What is Rice Coffee?What is Rice Coffee?Author: Chuggin McCoffeeYou may feel like you have heard everything that there is to hear about coffee under the sun, but what do you know about rice coffee? Interestingly enough, rice coffee has been in production for quite some time, and it has origins going back to World War I. By the time that World War II came along, people were having to survive with very little income, which is why rice coffee did become more popular than ever. Rice coffee was passed on to the Philippines when the Japanese Americans were fighting there during the war, and the Philippine people began to use seeds of rice to create their coffee. |
