As I said in my last post, technically NT does have it but, it's not
automatic. That *only* works when people login and are running the login
script. The only way that's effective is if users are forced to log off at
a regular interval. The utility I refer to (timesync) in the 4.0 Resource
Kit runs as a service and updates the time an assigned interval. I think
the default is 8 hours but, it's configurable. I work in an environment
that forcing users to log off is difficult at best. We found deploying this
on our workstations and servers to be much more effective.

How do you keep your servers time's synchronized?

Been using this for years.
---------------------------------------
rem set time on machine
rem

@echo off

net time <server> /set /yes

rem share out folders
rem

net use x: \\<server>\<share>

rem end sample bat file
--------------------------------------

As for them sharing out folders. They can share any folder they create.

Hope that clarifies what I meant.
