Does this happen on all the Windows XP clients or just some or one?

Does the login operation synchorise the time in the Window XP computer to the time in the server, as it should?

Have you checked the Date & Time and Timezone settings on the XP and your server?

Did this start to happen just recently or has it happened 'always'?

This happens on all the Windows XP Clients.
I checked the Date and Time and Timezone on all the XO syetems and found correct and all are matched with the server.
This start to happen recently, from yesterday only.

I found your topic in the following thread by using the following arguments in a search when the full text of the error message failed to find anything:

"time on this Computer" time different

I hope that helps. The key thing if the clocks are not days apart, is for the logged-in user to have the right to adjust the clock through a policy.

This will execute a time sync command in two ways. You can run this manually on each client or you can put it in a log on script and everyone will get it automatically.

-=BEGIN=-

@Echo Off
net time \\SERVER_NAME /set /yes
w32tm /monitor /computers:*SERVER_NAME
w32tm /resync /nowait /rediscover

-=END=-

Just be sure to change SERVER_NAME to the name of your 2K3 server.
