Hi Brian,
Yes, you are right! If the computers belong to an Active Directory domain,
the Windows Time service configures itself automatically by using the
Windows Time service that is available on domain controllers. The Windows
Time service configures a domain controller in its domain as a reliable
time source and synchronizes itself periodically with this source. You can
modify or overwrite these settings, depending on your specific needs.
For additional information about how to synchronize Time in Windows XP,
please refer to the below KB article:

XP

For additional information about how to config Window Time Service on
Windows Server 2003, please refer to the below KB article:

2003-based

| Thanks, I appreciate the help.
|
| But that begs another question...
|
| Does this mean that my XP computers on my WinSrv2003 domain automatically
| "set themselves" to get the time from the DC? Or do I have to explicitly
| tell the XP machine where to get the time from?
|
| Or, should I just specify the name of the TimeServer in my DHCP scope?
