What effect would this have on the domain if that setting was put onto the default domain policy?

Test it to see if you need the trailing colon, it's been so long I can't remember. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cothern Jeff D.

Administrative Templates\Windows Time Service The Adj and msSkewPerDay values are used to preserve information about the computer's clock between restarts. You should not manually edit these values so I'm not sure why you want to make the last entry. You can also use net time /setsntp with out specifying a value and clear out any bogus entries under the parameters key and set it to NT5DS, IIRC it also sets the period to SpecialSkew which is default for NT5DS. That would be easy to script. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cothern Jeff D.
