I know that on a Win2k3 server you are supposed to use the w32tm
utility to verify your time settings (as Joh Policelli has already
mentioned this week) so perhaps it would be better to use that utility
on your workstation as well since in Win2k3 net time will not always
show you accurate information. Give the w32tm utility a try and see if
it shows you differrent information than what you got from net time.
