Time clock changing

[max]

Hi,
I am running windows 2000 server with Active Directory. I
have changed the time clock in the Server bios to reflect
the correct time. The problem is the server time and date
is different once I logon to the system. This wrong time
is also being sent down to the workstations. I have SP4
on the server with latest updates. Sounds like a bug to
me. Any thoughts?

And what time and date does it change to? Right time zone set?

Get some atomic clock software to keep your DC sync'd properly with the
Naval Observatory.

I figured out the problem. I had put the novell client on
our server and it ended up that novell took over as the
time server. Novell obviously had the wrong time. Thanks.

Or, use the Windows Time service. See
<http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/howitworks/security/wintimese
rv.asp>. And for a real fun time, try to find someone on your private
network, or an upstream service provider, who will point you to the time
server they are already running. I had a major service provider tell me that
they weren't running one. ;-)

Glad it's been sorted out and thanks for posting back the resolution!
