Outside of using a NT server and running a time service, is there any way of setting the time on nine W98 PC's on a small peer-to-peer network ?

The customer is going to be moving to a linux server when they expand in the next few months, but just needs a "fix" for now, if one is available.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

I should have said also that... of the shareware and "freeware" that does this job, any recomendations?

I've heard of TSTC, gettime, achron, what works best?

thanks

I use Dimension 4 (shareware.com has it). Use that for one machine for all of them. If just one, put a line in startup folder :

net time \\yourpc /yes
 
it looks good, thanks.

like the fact you can have it get the time and then shut-down.

thanks again!
