getting time from a differant sever?

Anon

I am working on a calendar in PHP that needs to be accurate to with in a minute or two.
My server is currently 30+ minutes slow.
Is there a way that I can get the time from another server that has the correct time and if so does any one know a server that I can get the time from.

If not does any one have any suggestions on how I can work around this problem.

Setting the server time and keeping it accurate is probably best done in a cron job or some other regularly-scheduled execution (updated regularly so that it doesn't drift out of place).

Depending on your system some version of NTP (http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/index.html) may be of use to you.

I dont have control of the sever
all I can do is upload and download files for the site.

I know there are sites aout there that you can set your PC clock to.
Is there a way that I get the time from one of those servers and deslay it on a php page so the page will have the correct time even though the server is incorrect.

Thanks for the URL I'll try to see if my client will install NTP
