Ok, this is my dilemma: We are having trouble with some of our computers keeping time on our domain (servers are fine, just the workstations). I do *not* want to have to touch every workstation on the domain to get this taken care of. The only options that I have come accross (other than commercial equivalents which do the same thing for a fee) are the following…1)Timeserv (from the NT Resource Kit), which requires that a piece be installed on the client PC anyway, and 2) Adding the followingto our login script–Net time \\PDC_name_here /set /yes. The Problem that I have run into is that none of our users running the workstations have the set time permission on their local computer, so this doesn’t work. Can someone *please* tell me howto incorporate some type of time setting function into our domain without touching every workstation here? If I do need to touch every computer, than fine, but then please tell me how to give the permission to users, since I have never had to deal with this in NT. Ideally, all the computers in the domain should be synced 3-4 times in a workday, once at the very least.
BTW, I’m running an NT4SP6a-only domain (other than a handful of Win98 laptops, which I am not that concerned about), 100Mb ethernet, Cisco 2900 switches, a PDC, BDC, and two member servers (if any of this helps).
Thank-you in advance for your time and help!
