A Citrix farm I admin uses W2K servers (SP3) and Novell Client 4.83SP2
in a simple workgroup.  I am attempting to keep time synced with a
Solaris NTP server on the same subnet.  To accomplish this  I did the
following on each W2K server

1. net time /setsntp:myntpservername
2. verified settings with: net time /querysntp
3. In the Novell client properties, advanced settings SET STATION TIME
= OFF
4. w32tm -once   forced immediate timesync with time server.
5. verified time was changed to match NTP server successfully

I notice at some point during the day the servers time is changed back
to the Novell servers time.  What am I not checking?  What else could be
changing the time?
