Hi Adam,

I had the same problem some months ago. Trying to set the client´s
time in
the user´s logon scripts always brought me an "access denied" error for
the already given reasons.
If I remember right, it was this article that finally helped me out.
This
way the system time is set but the users are prevented from changing
the
time themselves.
Greetings,

Thanks for your and everyone else's replies. Unfortunately, the
registry edits would require me to go to all 150 computers here and
log in as local administrator to make the registry changes, which just
really isn't an option. Luckily, I have WPKG installed on all 150
computers to handle automatic deploying of software, and it runs as
local administrator on computer start up. So, I will see if I can use
K9 or another free NTP program to handle time synchronization, or have
WPKG execute a .bat with net time /set /yes \\server upon system start
up.
You don't need to install K9. Seems you could make the reg changes with
wpkg
