AmiTimeKeeper is a small program which keeps the time right on your
|
|
|
|
|
machine. No installation is required. It is operated as a commodity
|
|
|
|
|
and is controlled by AmigaOS. An AmiTCP compatible TCP/IP stack is
|
|
|
|
|
required for AmiTimeKeeper to work.

|
Several settings determine the behaviour. The settings are passed
|
|
|
|
|
either directly from the command line or by using the tool types of
|

|
|
|
an icon. Preferences can also be saved between reboots. A utility
|
|
|
|
|
for small tasks like starting and stopping is also included.
|
|
|
|
|
Comprehensive control is possible using ARexx.

The default server address is pool.ntp.org. To find another server
|
|
|
|
|
try visiting support.ntp.org or one of the other sites listing time
|
2021-01-12 22:16:18 +00:00
|
|
|
servers. Use a fixed pool server by prefixing the domain, for example,
|
|
|
|
|
1.pool.ntp.org.

The time zone needs to be configured using Workbench preferences or
|
|
|
|
|
a similar tool. In Amiga OS this is available through the Locale
|
|
|
|
|
Preferences Editor. The local time zone and daylight saving time are
|
|
|
|
|
optionally specified manually or using a POSIX TZ variable style.

The Icaros Desktop system is distributed with a custom build version of
|
|
|
|
|
AmiTimeKeeper. The author encourages everyone with an interest to build
|
|
|
|
|
their own version.
