        Use WMI to query and set time and date on remote systems. You
may need to adjust privileges for your account to set time/date on the
remote machine.
        
        

        use Win32::OLE qw(in);
        
        my $datetime = Win32::OLE->new("WbemScripting.SWbemDateTime") or
die;
        my $machine = shift @ARGV or ".";
        $machine =~ s/^[\\\/]+//;
        my $wmiservices =
Win32::OLE->GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate,(securit
y)}//$machine") or die;
        foreach my $os ( in(
$wmiservices->InstancesOf("Win32_OperatingSystem")))
        {
          print "Last Boot Time:".$os->{LastBootUpTime}."\n";
          print "Current time:".$os->{LocalDateTime}."\n";
          $datetime->{Value} = $os->{LocalDateTime};
          printf( "Current Time: %02d-%02d-%04d at %02d:%02d:%02d\n",
$datetime->{Month}, $datetime->{Day}, $datetime->{Year},
$datetime->{Hours}, $datetime->{Minutes}, $datetime->{Seconds} );
          print "Setting time + 2 hours:";
          $datetime->{Hours} += 2;
          printf( "Current Time: %02d-%02d-%04d at %02d:%02d:%02d\n",
$datetime->{Month}, $datetime->{Day}, $datetime->{Year},
$datetime->{Hours}, $datetime->{Minutes}, $datetime->{Seconds} );
          print "\tHard value: $datetime->{Value}\n";
          $Result = $os->SetDateTime($datetime->{Value});
          print "Result: $Result\n";
        }

                I've used Win32-OLE to start/execute processes on remote
computers.  In
                this scenario you could use Win32-OLE to call time

                Yes NTP. Well, if the guy had it setup right it would
work, but no. So I
                had to create an internet time server bot (with a little
help) which
                sets the local machine time. I was hoping to employ a
Win32-only
                solution to then set the domain controller rather than
spawn one of the
                pstools (I am familiar with them).
