    Announcing a WinSock 1.1 compliant Network Time client for Windows.
This is a FreeWare program, and I am releasing it somewhat as Lee Murach 
has done with his TXTSRV program, and Ian Blenke with  WSMTPSRV.  All
source code is included, all I ask is that if you use it, please drop me
an email message (vorlon@hookup.net) with some comments about the program.
If you wish, you can even send me $, since dial-up Internet SLIP access
is not cheap.

Features:

        -  Automatic execution mode using command-line arguments
        -  Last five time servers accessed are added to Host Menu
           for easy access
        -  Option to modify local system's time or simply report time
           returned from the time server
        -  TCP or UDP connection option. The UDP portion is now fixed ;-)
        -  A .HLP file is included which describes the programs operation
        -  Complete source code is included
        -  Uses asynchronous WinSock functions


    However, I do not want the headache of supporting this program, which
is why I have created a .HLP file.  But what I hope is for MS-Windows
programmers who wish to create public domain WinSock software can use
this code as a guide for creating other public domain WinSock server
programs.  You can create commercial/shareware programs, but you MUST
abide by the distribution agreement in this software's copyright.

    You should be able to find this program on the following anonymous FTP
