[Fourlanders] Time server question

[Scott Spencer]

Hi Bob,

The Windows 2000 machine can connect to an internet time server, but  
it will take a manual entry into the Windows registry to do so.  XP  
would be preferred.  As for the WriteLog server, I don't think that  
would need the precision timing that you'll want on the station PC's  
for WSJT so Windows 2000 should be fine and shouldn't rely on the time  
server.

Brian, please correct me if I'm wrong on that point.
