I'll have to test this out. One question is the delay associated with the 'ping' of a round trip between your computer and the server. I'm wondering if the 'ping' isn't taken out improperly?

Why is the Web-interface at http://nist.time.gov/timezone.cgi?UTC/s/0/java (set to UTC) 2 secands fast (within 0.4s) caompared to the computer clock after synchronising it at time.nist.gov ? Synchronising the computer clock at an other time-server results in the same difference. Can you also notice this difference of 2s? Is there an explanation for it, or is the Web-interface showing a wrong time?
