High there,

I'm again on this channel with another problem.

There is a timeserver running on linux and wan't to 
syncronise several Linux-, Win95/98/NT- and Novell-Clients to it.

I thought of doing that by python in an easy way.
It just have to start a periodical OS-procedure like 'net time'
or something like that. Ok, this would be easy to realize, wouldn't it?

But I also thought that someone has an idea about that before
and did it likely better than me. So, do you know a weblink
to a script which already nearly does what I need? Perhaps 
directly with interrogation at port 37 NTP?

Need no GUI, just a script started e.g. by autostart and syncro
time periodically. Even if there exists a special module for that,
please, tell me!

Many Thanx,
Holger
