How do I configure a Windows 2000 server as Time server, so that all the clients in the network are in Sync with this server. Also this Server need to Sync with Atomic Time servers worldwide.

Please help me in configuring the server...

Thankyou in advance..

Try this:

The PDC FSMO at the root of the forest is authoritative for the enterprise.

It should be configured to use the SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol)to recognize an external time source using:

net time /setsntp:<server list>

Use the ip of the Atomic Clock server

Example: net time /setsntp:###.###.###.###

Your clients will detect the automatically or you can run the Net Time <servername>/y command.
