- PDCLKSET sets the time and date of the PC clock using a TIME server.
- It can use BOOTP to supply IP number and other info.
- PDCLKSET talks to the network card via a packet driver (currently only
- Ethernet or Ethernet emulating packet drivers, a fix for DIS_PKT appended).
-
- PDCLKSET can assign the proper normal or dls timezone name to
- an environment variable (TZ is used by most systems).
-
- There is also a powerful buildt in ping client and server.
-
- The PDTBUILD program, which is included in the ZIP package, looks
- at all ARP broadcasts and generates a table with all the IP hosts
- on this (sub)net.
-
- And best of all, PDCLKSET is so small (12 KB) you can use it even on
- diskette-only PCs.
-
- For more info, see file PDCLKSET.DOC.
-
- PDCLKxxx.ZIP is available at wsmr-simtel20.army.mil:PD1:<MSDOS.LAN>,
- oak.oakland.edu:pub/msdos/lan, wuarchive.wustl.edu:mirrors/msdos/lan,
- nic.funet.fi:pub/msdos/networks/lan, and probably other Simtel mirror
- archives.

- Happy timesetting!
