I found that using timeserv was very easy.

Microsoft Knowledgebase article Q232255
"Using TIMESERV to Set and Synchronize Time"

URL: http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=/search/viewDoc.aspx?docID=KC.Q232255%26dialogID=10092444%26iterationID=1%26sessionID=anonymous|;8916838%26url=kb;en-us;Q232255

does a great job of explaining it.

For a second, slightly different discussion see
Microsoft Knowledgebase article Q131715
"How to Set Up And Synchronize with Domain Time Source Servers"

URL: http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=/search/viewDoc.aspx?docID=KC.Q131715%26dialogID=10092444%26iterationID=1%26sessionID=anonymous|;8916838%26url=kb;en-us;Q131715

And if you have a permanent connection to the Internet see
Microsoft Knowledgebase article Q172878
"Resource Kit Timeserv.exe Utility Causes 100% CPU Utilization"

URL: http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=/search/viewDoc.aspx?docID=KC.Q172878%26dialogID=10092444%26iterationID=1%26sessionID=anonymous|;8916838%26url=kb;en-us;Q172878
