Syncing time with betfair

[Lewis]

Hi,

I run gruss linked to excel on a VPS server - the past 10 days or so I have been experiencing [from nowhere] a number of losses where gruss has failed to close my positions before the race starts.

I believe the problem is that my server's clock is not synced with betfair and races are starting 'before' my bot has a chance to green up. Has anyone noticed any races going off early the past week or so? and if they haven't and it seems it is a problem at my end how do people ensure that they are running at the same time as betfair.

When I say 'sync' it does not need to be exact as I normally close all positions with 30 seconds before scheduled off which has worked for me for almost a year now - this is a fairly new problem.

Thanks - Lewis
