28 /* This example code only builds as-is on Windows.
29  *
30  * While Unix/Linux user, you do not need this software.
31  * You can achieve the same result as synctime using curl, awk and date.
32  * Set proxy as according to your network, but beware of proxy Cache-Control.
33  *
34  * To set your system clock, root access is required.
35  * # date -s "`curl -sI https://nist.time.gov/timezone.cgi?UTC/s/0 \
36  *        | awk -F': ' '/Date: / {print $2}'`"
37  *
38  * To view remote webserver date and time.
39  * $ curl -sI https://nist.time.gov/timezone.cgi?UTC/s/0 \
40  *        | awk -F': ' '/Date: / {print $2}'
41  *
42  * Synchronising your computer clock via Internet time server usually relies
43  * on DAYTIME, TIME, or NTP protocols. These protocols provide good accurate
44  * time synchronization but it does not work very well through a
45  * firewall/proxy. Some adjustment has to be made to the firewall/proxy for
46  * these protocols to work properly.
47  *
48  * There is an indirect method. Since most webserver provide server time in
49  * their HTTP header, therefore you could synchronise your computer clock
50  * using HTTP protocol which has no problem with firewall/proxy.
51  *
52  * For this software to work, you should take note of these items.
53  * 1. Your firewall/proxy must allow your computer to surf internet.
54  * 2. Webserver system time must in sync with the NTP time server,
55  *    or at least provide an accurate time keeping.
56  * 3. Webserver HTTP header does not provide the milliseconds units,
57  *    so there is no way to get very accurate time.
58  * 4. This software could only provide an accuracy of +- a few seconds,
59  *    as Round-Trip delay time is not taken into consideration.
60  *    Compensation of network, firewall/proxy delay cannot be simply divide
61  *    the Round-Trip delay time by half.
62  * 5. Win32 SetSystemTime() API will set your computer clock according to
63  *    GMT/UTC time. Therefore your computer timezone must be properly set.
64  * 6. Webserver data should not be cached by the proxy server. Some
65  *    webserver provide Cache-Control to prevent caching.
66  *

72  *
73  * Usage:
74  * This software will synchronise your computer clock only when you issue
75  * it with --synctime. By default, it only display the webserver's clock.
