Connect through Terminal Services or through eg VPN? If the latter, you may have global policies on the domain which force domain PCs to use either an external or internal server as a NNTP server. 1) It depends a bit what you mean by system-wide, but if you mean Windows Domain wide, then yes, you can set up eg a Domain Controller as central NNTP server, use policies to force clients to update from it, and most appliances have an option to either set time manually or you can specify the ip of your DC/NNTP to be it's time server. 2) You can use Group Policy to force/disable PC s using the NNTP server. Ncik From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Doug Rooney Sent: 14 July 2009 22:09 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Time On server sessions Sort of on the same theme, I have users that connect remotely using their desktop computer and the server updates their system clock to the server time, sometimes this is different for whatever reason and then the users time is off as well, so my question is, #1) Is there a reliable system time updater that works system wide? (Use currently use Atomic Clock Sync which only checks once a day. I run this on servers as well as local machines, we also have a Toshiba Strata CIX phone system that I would like to sync as well. Or #2 is there a way for a local computer to ignore system clock updates from servers? Thank You ~Doug Rooney Sonoma Tilemakers IT Manager 7750 Bell Rd.
