[Coco] 2022-06-10 Update on my CoCoIOn Ethernet Card Project

[Michael Furman]

I ended last week’s post with a riddle:

My CoCo needs to know what time it is and it can send and receive UDP packets.

The Answer: We don’t need no steenkin’ Real-Time Clocks!  Introducing: NTP on the CoCo

I wrote an ntpdate application for the CoCo that works with the CoCoIOn Ethernet Card.  After the card is initialized with ccio -i you can run ntpdate to set the system time.
