Hi Tom,
I was asking about this in January of 2007
http://support.signature.net/messages/7884.htm
In the intervening months an upated GETSYSTEMTIME was added, but,
far as I could tell would only allow a CA client to get the Time
from the CA HOST (SERVER) instead of itself.
We resorted to having a program running in background Comet Session, on the
Comet Server, updating a comet file about every 1/2 second with the time.
Then other programs, running on Client Systems, read this file to get the Comet server time.
FYI, we have only delt with configuration with a single CFAM and Security Server running on the same system.
There was some discussion with configuration with multiple systems, how to know which system to query to get the time.
Each file can be a maximum of 1MB in length Uploaded files will be purged from the server on a regular basis.
