To syncronise time between 2 Solaris boxes run the following on box 1
# rdate box2
This doesn't ensure that the boxes have the correct time, but rather that they both have the same time.
To get the correct time you need to run the xntpd deamon, see man xntpd & man ntp.
If you want to extend time sync to windows, get something like abouttime (a freeware app available on the web), then set this up to get it's time from solaris box2.
