tmhsiao's Journal: Synching time with Windows XP

Apparently everything written about Windows 2000 doesn't apply to Windows XP when it comes to synchronizing time with NTP. "net time /set" does not work, even after the appropriate "net time /setsntp:server" command. Windows XP requires the following:

C:\>w32tm /resync

There is no longer a '-once' option to the w32tm program, and you shouldn't need to stop and restart the w32time service for this to take affect.
