Synchronizing Time on Windows

Details can be found by following the title link. In short, though WinXP has an "Internet Time" tab on the "Date & Time" control panel, other versions of Win32 doesn't. For all versions, you can sync your Windows machine time by first setting a time server:

net time /setsntp:tick.usno.navy.mil

and then syncing the time:

net time /set

If your time service is not already setup, read the article. The US Naval Observatory has a backup time server named tock.usno.navy.mil; so if tick doesn't work, try tock. A Microsoft web page has a list of time servers that are available on the Internet.
