Reliable Time Stamp
The Novell ESM solution gathers data from multiple sources and collates this data to create a
wide variety of security and audit reports. The utility and probative value of these reports is
greatly diminished if disparate sources disagree as to times, and so it is strongly recommended
that anyone installing ESM provide for enterprise-wide time synchronization (such as that
provided by Active Directory, or through the use of Network Time Protocol).
