- TIMESYNC.EXE 4/13/1989
- ============
-
- * What is it for?
-
- To solve time inconsistencies between netstation and
- 3S40x servers.
-
-
- * How does it work?
-
- This is a terminate-stay-resident program which
- synchronizes DOS time by the real time clock setting. It
- chains itself with the system timer interrupt INT 1Ch and
- maintains a counter of its own. For every timer tick, it
- decrements the count by one. When it hits zero, it
- updates the DOS time by reading from the real time clock
- and then reloads the preset count. The default setting
- for synchronization is 15 minutes. This default setting
- can be modified by using the option switches available.
-
-
- * Available command switches:
-
- /H=hh to set sync period in hours, where hh = 1 ... 65535.
- /M=mm to set sync period in minutes, where mm = 1 ... 65535.
- /? to prompt user about program usage.
-
-
- * How do you install it?
-
- 1) Establish a console connection with the 3S40x and copy
- TIMESYNC.EXE to the root of the C: drive.
-
- 2) Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to include TIMESYNC just
- before the call to 3plus_on.bat.
-
- For example, suppose the old AUTOEXEC.BAT looks like
- this:
-
- echo 3+ Server Boot Up batch file - version 3.1
- echo ~ 3DOS V3.21 > LCD:
- 3switch
- if errorlevel 17 goto done
- \3plus\3config\3plus_on.bat
- :done
- command
-
-
- After the modification, the new AUTOEXEC.BAT will look
- like this:
-
- echo 3+ Server Boot Up batch file - version 3.1
- echo ~ 3DOS V3.21 > LCD:
- 3switch
- if errorlevel 17 goto done
- TIMESYNC
- \3plus\3config\3plus_on.bat
- :done
- command
-
- 3) Reboot your server in operating mode.
