Syncing system Time with Greenwich Mean time

[DougP]

I have a extra TAB on my Date & Time program in control panel in Windows XP Professional at home.
There is not one here at work. Nor on the SBS 2003 server.
Can I turn this on somehow?
I would like our server to keep better track of time. It’s off as much as 7 minutes now.

Any ideas or suggestions welcomed

In an AD environment, the server holding the PDCe FSMO role is the "time keeper" for your domain. All other servers and workstations will automatically sync to that. DO NOT put anything in your logon scripts to sync time.

Set the server to use an external source for time, and you're all set.
