I am setting up a FreeBSD box (2.1.7.1) as an xntpd server for our local net. I want people to be able to coordinate their Win95 PC's using AtomTime95 or some such utility. Using AtomTime, I am able to get time service from the FreeBSD box but it comes back as EST/EDT time when AtomTime is expecting UTC. I tried setting the default timezone in FreeBSD to UTC but could not find an option for it. I need some way to: 1) Set the FreeBSD box so that xntpd returns UTC time, either by setting UTC as the default time zone or configuring an offset into xntpd's answers. (Or some other option?) 2) Get a Win95 utility which can be set to expect EST/EDT time. 3) Or some other option? Thanks. Dan Martin Playtex Apparel
