Setup one or more servers and setup the PCs to sync from the server. We configured our routers as NTP servers; they are configured to pass the NTP broadcast packets between subnets. Works very well for use. Just start ntpd on startup; no crontab, etc required. Cheers, -- Alan Edmonds, KB5ZUY Sterling Software M/S 132 Phone: +1-972-801-6485 5800 Tennyson Pkwy.
