clockwall

Documentation

Overview

Modify clock2 to accept a port number, and write a program, clockwall, that acts as a client of several clock servers at once, reading the times from each one and displays the result in a table, akin to the wall of clocks seen in some business offices. If you have access to geographically distributed computers, run instances remotely; otherwise run local instances on different ports with fake time zones
