I guess the original poster asked for retrieving the time of the LDAP server via cn=monitor or similar. Sometimes this is handy for data sync processes eliminating the time shift.

Hi Michael,

most times you are served much better by eliminating time differences between two and more systems using NTP instead of hacking around the differences. If two systems agree on UTC, you don't have to consider a time shift.

Bernhard
