The NetClock component provides the current (GMT) time from an Internet Time Server. The NetClock component implements a standard Time Protocol client as specified in RFC 868. The address of the Time Server is provided in the TimeServer property. You get the time by calling the GetTime method.
SNTP and NTP protocols enable your programs to get exact time from public time servers over the Internet. Keep all computers in your multi-tier application synchronized with atomic clocks to eliminate problems with different local clocks. Get exact time-value for your time-critical database entries.
NET SNTP TimeWizard gives the power to retrieve the exact time from NTP time servers across the Internet. These times are accurate because they are synchronized from Atomic and radio frequency clocks.
