I want to measure the packet delivery delays over various network links. For this I need to synchronise the times of the sender and receiver, either against NTP or eachother.
Unfortunately I won't necessarily have root priviledges to change the PCs' clocks. So I'm looking for a way I can determine the offset and simply correct my measurements from my Python code. I doubt something like http://www.nightsong.com/phr/python/setclock.py would give me a resolution of less than 10ms - which is what I want. Any Python module out there that uses a more sophisticated method? btw I can do round-trip delivery and avoid the whole clock-mismatch issue, but this would lose information on the network's asymmetry - which would be really nice to have. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
