NetChronometer 1.4.5
by
Jeremy Kezer

You've probably noticed that the clock in your Macintosh tends to drift as time goes by. This can range from being a minor nuisance to a problem, especially if you do a lot of synchronizing between Macintoshes or other computers on a network.  NetChronometer synchronizes the clock on your Macintosh to a highly accurate network time server, over the internet.

Features include:

•  You can manually synchronize the clock, or configure NetChronometer to sync it periodically.
•  Contains a large list of time servers world wide, or you can customize it (even use an in-house NT server!).
•  Stand-alone application - doesn't consume memory when it's not running, unlike Apple's Time Synchronizer extension (introduced in Mac OS 8.5).
•  Fully Mac OS 8.5 compatible - it's Appearance Manager savvy!

Requirements

NetChronometer will run on any Macintosh with a 68020 or better (it is accelerated for PowerPC).  NetChronometer requires a direct or dial-in internet connection. It  supports Open Transport or "classic" Macintosh TCP/IP.

NOTE: NetChronometer cannot access the internet through a proxy server or similar internet firewall.
