Why FD? What is the direct security implications of this?

 

I'm sure someone can construct a rather tenuous link, but really....

Subject: [Full-Disclosure] Windows Time Synchronization - Best Practices

Hello everyone,

 

I was wondering if anyone has or could point me to some sort of paper describing best-practices related to time synchronization and the configuration of daylight savings.

 

Basically my problem is deciding if I should or shouldn't use Windows' option to autoconfigure daylight savings but I'd like to see recommendations from known companies.

 

I am also open to suggestions from the Full-disclosure community but my recommendations have to be justified to my boss ;)

 

Thanks for any pointers!

 

See ya,
