Getting date/time from server

I need to make sure that the date/time that's displayed on an internal
webpage is using the "official" server time and not the user's
workstation time. But I can't find out how to get it. Surely there's a
way?

If you just use DateTime.Now executing at the server, you'll find the
server's time.
