Description:
Neutron is a very simple and small time synchronizing program that will retrieve the accurate time from one of several specialized time servers on the Internet. Once the network time has been retrieved Neutron can set your computer's clock to match it.
There are some options in the program that will enable you to automatically obtain the time from the time server and set your clock appropriately at program startup.
It is also possible to have Neutron automatically exit after the time has been set and so is ideal for placing a shortcut in your Startup folder to sync your clock when your computer is started.
Neutron uses the standard Time protocol (UDP port 37). The time retrieved from the network time server is given as the number of seconds since midnight on January 1st 1900. Since the protocol only allows accuracy down to the second you may not get the most accurate time possible but it is usually good enough to always be within about half a second of "true" time. The network latency is accommodated in the calculations involved in setting your computer clock.
Clicking the setup button ">>" will show you the program options. Clicking the same button will hide the options.
The setup options will allow you to choose the time server that is used by selecting from a preset list in the dropdown list. You may want to use one that is located nearer your computer for faster responses.
Select whether you want the program to automatically try the next server in the list if it cannot resolve or obtain a reply from the current one.
Select whether you want the program to automatically obtain and synchronize to the network time when you start the program by clicking in the "Auto sync at program startup" checkbox.
Select whether you want the program to exit after it has synced your clock time by clicking in the "Exit after time has been synced" checkbox. If you have this option set, the next time you start the program you can prevent the program from exiting by de-selecting this same checkbox.

Downloadtube.com Editor Final Note:
Neutron - simple, small, easy to use and freeware. That's exactly how a good time synchronization tool should be.
