Network Time Protocol

[Duc Nguyen]

  I've been trying to synchronize the clocks of sites on the Ethernet
but could not figure out how to do this as accurate as possible. I
tried using the NTP command to compute the clock offset envolving two
different sites but the offsets vary greatly. My goal is to figure out
the time (as accurately as possible) it takes to send a file from one
site to another site. This could be done easily if I know the
difference between the two clocks. Can anyone help me with this ? I
would appreciate it very much.
