On Windows95 and Windows98 from command prompt enter following:
net time \\timeserver /set /yes.
This will synchronize the computer's clock with clock on timeserver. Instead of \\timeserver you can put /DOMAIN:domainname

You can also write a logon script and place it in the netlogon directory for replication to any other domain controllers. Then, you don't have to touch every client machine. Each client will receive the script during logon and automatically synchronize themselves with the server you specify. I'll send you a sample w/brief instructions if you want.

Good luck,

The NET TIME command can either query the time and date from another computer or syschronize the current computers's time with that of another computer.

Example:

NET TIME \\pc248 /set /yes

The /YES option is useful in a batch file and seemsto be undocumented.

Good luck.
