Setting time through Miami DX?

[stu232]

MiamiDX allows you to enter the address of a time server.

I have entered a few yet my browser and my Amiga still thinks it's 1970.

Does anyone know how to set MiamiDX to properly configure my time?

I don't have a RTC, I just want MiamiDX to set the time on my Amiga whenever I launch it.

Is this even possible or have I misunderstood a random FAQ?

I`m using Facts and MiamiDX since years. Works fine if you need an alternative.

I have a file called miami.online in miami: which I automatically call from MiamiDX when it connects (cant remember where that option is).

C:Run C:NTPsync -d60 -c time1.stupi.se time2.stupi.se
C:Run >NIL: smbfs domain=atlas.se user=root password=SuperSecret service=//apollo70/amiga device=SMBFS: Volume=SMBFS0:

That syncs the time and maps a network drive to SMBFS0:.
DNS seems messed up in MiamiDX in some instances though, so I had to add apollo70 to database/hosts in MiamiDX, pointing it to the IP. (smbfs does not like connecting directly to the IP for me).
