Greetings All

I have read the following article on Synchronize Your Computer Clock with an Internet Time Server below. I have a personal firewall and would like to configure it so it cannot block my time syncronization. How do I allow my firewall and configure it manually to allow the Time to Syncrohonize in Windows XP? I would appreciate any help I can get

You can find a discussion of time sync with troubleshooting tips at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/tr...oddocs/entserver/windows_date_IT_overview.asp

In particular, it has this information:
"Most corporate and organizational firewalls will block time
synchronization, as do some personal firewalls. Home users should read your
firewall documentation for information about unblocking network time
protocol (NTP). "

For more information and links on NTP try
