Hello people,

I'm trying to get the time and date from a public server using this
code:

SOCKET, 1, servername, 13
date=''
READF, 1, date
CLOSE, 1
PRINT, date

I tried to get the date from all the servers that I found in the
following link: http://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi

The port 13 is the port for the daytime but I tried with 37 and 123
ports (time and NTP protocol).
I can't obtain a good result. Does anybody tried that ? Any
suggestions or comments ?

Thanks in advance,

Bernat
