Pegasus 2 Time Prefs 53.4, worked fine before update
time server "ntp.apple.com" (just 4 the lulz)
Port Number default
Offset type Auto
When you select get time little clock comes up and stays up when the time preferences is the active window, the remote time not being shown or updated etc.
Pull down Menus on the workbench not working, the titles are shown, but the menus don't open. the non-pull down menus are fine. CORRECTION The pop up menus are the same, can't choose any options.
As are the pull down menus on other screens.

Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
Near at hand is your forgetting all; near, too, all forgetting you.
Re: Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
I don't have this problem, I always use the apple server (also know as time.apple.com) to sync my OS4 computers clock (tested on the Sam460ex, Sam440ep, µA1 and Amiga 1200.)
Maybe there is a delay from the apple server in giving you the time.
Could you check with this server please : ntp.skynet.be
By the way, I can reproduce this situation when I enter a faulty server address.

Re: Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
hmm, odd now seems to be working correctly on ntp.apple.com, ntp.skynet.be and time.apple.com, I don't think I changed anything that would have fixed it.
Something wrong at ntp.apple.com? Possibly?
No wait, it's still doing something wrong, I'll investigate further...

Re: Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
I found before that is OS4 can't find the time server or the URL is incorrect it will sit around waiting forever and I tended just to reboot.Stephen Robinson wrote:Pegasus 2 Time Prefs 53.4, worked fine before updates.

Re: Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
Seems to be working fine now. Not quite sure why to be honest. Maybe this part of 'Time' needs a time out, ie can't get a remote time in, say 30 seconds give up gracefully, not lock the system.
Also if you're having trouble remembering ntp.skynet.be, www.google.com seems to work as well!

Re: Update 3 Time Preferences Remote Time server problem
Try searching for 'public ntp servers' on google you might find one near you. Note that some ntp servers admin ask you to notify them before setting an automatic synchronization with them.
Also note that the nearest the server is to you the fastest it would be to handle because :
Also note that the nearest the server is to you the fastest it would be to handle because :
- the distance is shorter
- chances are high that the trafic on this particular server is lower than on bigger, os default ones (thus your query can be dealt with faster)
