NAME
Net::Time - time and daytime network client interface
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Time qw(inet_time inet_daytime);
print inet_time(); # use default host from Net::Config
print inet_time('localhost');
print inet_time('localhost', 'tcp');
print inet_daytime(); # use default host from Net::Config
print inet_daytime('localhost');
print inet_daytime('localhost', 'tcp');
DESCRIPTION
"Net::Time" provides subroutines that obtain the time on a remote
machine.
Functions
"inet_time([$host[, $protocol[, $timeout]]])"
Obtain the time on $host, or some default host if $host is not given
or not defined, using the protocol as defined in RFC868. The
optional argument $protocol should define the protocol to use,
either "tcp" or "udp". The result will be a time value in the same
units as returned by time() or *undef* upon failure.
"inet_daytime([$host[, $protocol[, $timeout]]])"
Obtain the time on $host, or some default host if $host is not given
or not defined, using the protocol as defined in RFC867. The
optional argument $protocol should define the protocol to use,
either "tcp" or "udp". The result will be an ASCII string or *undef*
upon failure.
