Using a time server in WindowsTo synchronize the time on a machine with an external source you can use the net time command. This can be done in many ways. One way is by using the net time command in a batch file. This is the old way and you need administrator/superuser privileges when running the batch file. In Windows 2000 the time service was introduced which does this for you. If your computer is a member of a domain, the time service will synchronize the local time with the one of a domain controller. This domain controller will do the same with the PDC, which will does the same with the forest root. For the forest root or if your computer is not in a domain you can synchronize with any available SNTP server (time server).
net time /setsntp:There are several SNTP time servers run by the U.S. Naval Observatory that are satisfactory for this function, for example: ntp2.usno.navy.mil at 192.5.41.209 tock.usno.navy.mil at 192.5.41.41 SNTP uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port 123. For Windows 2008: w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:time.windows.com,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL /reliable:yes w32tm /config /update net stop w32time net start w32time w32tm /resync /rediscover Resources
