DESCRIPTION
ntimeset is a command-line program that allows you to display and optionally synchronize the current Notes time and the current OS time. The server time can often drift on Notes servers that have been running for quite some time, and while you can easily reset the OS time on the server, it's not so easy to reset the Notes server time. This program allows you to do so programmatically.

WARNING: Be careful when you use this program on a Notes server, because if you adjust the Notes server time while processes are running you may get unpredictable results. To be as safe as possible, you should run this program during off-hours, while no users are on the server and while the fewest number of regular server processes are running.


REQUIREMENTS
Windows 95/98/NT/2000
Notes Client or Server 4.6 or higher


INSTALLATION
Copy the ntimeset.exe program to your Notes executable directory (the directory that has the nnotes.dll file). Run it from a command prompt, as described below.


USAGE
ntimeset [/d] [/s]

  /d      displays the current Notes time and OS time
  /s      sets the Notes time to match the current OS time


EXAMPLES
To display the current Notes and OS times:
  ntimeset /d

To sync the Notes time with the current OS time:
  ntimeset /s


KNOWN PROBLEMS
None.
