"Atomic Clock" Property Page
The NIST Internet Time Service allows users to synchronize computer clocks via the Internet. The time information provided by the service is directly traceable to UTC(NIST). The service responds to time requests from any Internet client in several formats including the SNTP (RFC 2030) and TIME (RFC 868) protocols.
