To set the date and time that NewsShare NAS uses, choose System | System
Administration | Date/Time . The Date/Time window appears:
After you set the date and time, NewsShare NAS maintains the correct date and
time even when special events, such as Daylight Savings and Leap Year, occur.
1. If you do not use Network Time Protocol (NTP), select the correct time zone
for the site and go to Step 4.
NOTE: To automatically update scheduled time changes such as
daylight savings time, use a city time zone rather than a regional time
zone.
2. If you use NTP, click in the Enable NTP Service box. NTP is a protocol that
synchronizes the real-time clock in a computer to the Universal Time
Coordinated (UTC) via radio, satellite, or modem. The NTP server field
appears. The date and time fields are set at the current date and time. They
cannot be modified. Using NTP ensures accurate time keeping. Some
business application may require it.
3. Enter the IP address or the host name of the NTP service to which you
subscribe. Go to Step 6.
4. Specify the current year, month, and day . (Not available if NTP service is
enabled.)
5. Specify the current hours, minute, and second . (Not available if NTP
service is enabled.)
