Is there a program that will synchronize both date and time?

I can only find programs (e.g., Tardis 2000 v1.6) that does time only
with NTP servers. Thank you in advance. :)

Windows Time service does this natively.

Where? I don't see it in Date/Time settings. Remember, this is Windows
2000 SP4, not XP and newer.

How do I configure it to NTP servers and stuff? Does it do dates too?

"There are things in the Universe billions of years older than either of
our races. They are vast, timeless, and if they are aware of us at all,
it is as little more than ants and we have as much chance of
communicating with them as an ant has with us. We know. We've tried and
we've learned that we can either stay out from underfoot or be stepped
on. They are a mystery and I am both terrified and reassured that to
know that there are still wonders in the Universe, that we have not
explained everything. Whatever they are, Miss Sakai, they walk near
Sigma 957 and they must walk there alone." --G'Kar - Mind War

For a stand-alone box you don't need to install anything. If the date
portion didn't work it would be worthless. From a command prompt;

net time /setsntp:192.5.41.209

or any other ntp source of your choosing
(192.5.41.209 = ntp2.usno.navy.mil)

Interesting and thanks.

Is Windows XP's Internet Time using this service too?
