No wisdom here, but idle googling turned up this TechNet document on the subject: Appendix H: Configuring Time Services for a Heterogeneous UNIX and Windows Environment http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb463171..aspx
Some solutions involve editing the Windows registry, which is OTQ, but the last section: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb463171.aspx#EAAA might possibly be relevant. If this is completely off-base, sorry to waste your time.
