synchronizing time
« on: April 22, 2006, 07:59:46 PM »
Hi to all,
         Is there a way to synchronize all my workstation time(windows XP SP2 workstations ) to my SME server 7. It is currently in server only mode and is acting as the domain controller for all workstations.

If I'm correct you can do that by modifying the netlogon.bat file, the example is in there I believe. The netlogon.bat file can be found on your server in the following directory: /home/e-smith/files/samba/netlogon/netlogon.bat

the line to synchronize the time should be something like this:
Code: [Select]
net time \\servername /set /yes
