Getting the time from the server hosting the SWF?

Can this be done?

The problem is trying to create a time/date stamp that is relative to the hosting server. The machines accessing the file do not have outward facing int-ER-net access, only int-RA-net access. So I can't get the UTC. I have to calculate it based on the server's location and it's relative UTC offset.

So I need Hosting-Server time, not Local-Machine time.

Any thoughts?

BTW: The company I'm working for FINALLY got flash cs3, upgrading from MX. WOW! What a difference!
 
BTW: This will be running on a Unilx/linux server but server-side scripts like asp, jsp, or php are not allowed.

nice, huh?

Makes it fun.
