-----------------------------THE GOOD STUFF

NETCLOCK sets the clock on one Amiga from the clock on a second Amiga.  This is
handy if you have a stripped-down Amiga 1000 with no built-in clock hooked up
via DNET with another Amiga, over the phone or via null modem.

NETCLOCK uses Matt Dillon's DNET networking package.  DNET is freely redist-
ributable, available on Fred Fish #294 and on all the major nets.  Follow the
directions that come with DNET to establish the connection.

DNET uses the file S:DNET.SERVERS to locate server programs; you will need to 
add a line like

9496   sys:dnet/sclock  ram:   ;NETCLOCK server

in order for DNET to find the NETCLOCK server.  Change the path to reflect
the actual path of the server, but don't modify the number 9496.

To run NETCLOCK, just type NETCLOCK.  There are no options.  The clock on the
machine you type the command on will be set by the clock of the remote machine.
It's only accurate to within a few seconds, but it's better than nothing!
