JBT time out error

Hi Eugene,

I'm getting the "Receive time out" error message when I try to run any
strategy on JBT. I've checked the log and I've this:

Shall I change the NTP date/time server address?

Thx,

Hello Javier,

This issue was recently discussed here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/jbooktrader/z7PqQXBmCGk

Yes, the solution is to use the NTP pool, so that there is no dependence on a specific NTP server.
