Post a new message to this list... arcvonz We have a time critical smart client application running on Windows 2000/XP systems. Is there any reliable service that would help in syncing the local system time to atomic clock or local time at the least in case the user changes the system clock in purpose or inadvertently? - Network synchronization solutions in the network is manual I believe? - Web service based sync could work but will not if the user is off line. Any other viable solutions? (programmatically) Thanks much, Arc Reply to this message...        John Timney \(Microsoft MVP\) (VIP) Why dont you write a small windows service that queries a web based atomic clock and resets the time Regards John Timney Microsoft Regional Director Microsoft MVP "arcvonz" <Click here to reveal e-mail address> wrote in message news:Click here to reveal e-mail address... > We have a time critical smart client application running on Windows 2000/XP [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...        Sam Santiago Check out this link: How to Configure an Authoritative Time Server in Windows 2000 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;216734 It has a link to Word document that discusses the time service in detail. Essentially, you can run the command: net time /setsntp:ntpserver to set which server you want to sync with. ntpserver can be an IP address or server name (Internet or local).
