hello, i need to make check the date of instalation of a software that i
write;
the instalation date is written somewhere in computer, that's not a problem;
but, to check the diferrence between the present date and the install date,
i need a reliable time source
(i presume that the client will try to set time back)
so far i've thought of these:
- if the client has Internet access (the soft is network based (n-tier) and
may not access the internet) :
- check the date against a time server
- check the date against my server
- ?
- if the client does not have internet access :
- check the date against a local domain controller
- ?
any other ideas?
thank you
