Sync PPC time with Server

[chora]

We are developing a PPC application and we need to sync the time/date on
the device with the server time.

An ideas how can we do that?

Hi!

If you're using ActiveSync, there is a value under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE\Services\Partners\DeviceID\Services\Synchronization : Sync Time on Dock, which specifies whether the device time should be set after connection. Value 1 sets the device time to the desktop time after connection.

You will need an NTP client.
I wonder if this helps:

Also here seems to be a C# implementation that could be ported.
