I am running Windows Server 2003 on my server and Windows XP on 7 desktops that are networked. The time on the desktops synchronize with the server since they are members of the domain. I have a non-Microsoft program that occasionally requires me to change the date on the desktops. Is there anyway I can change the date on a desktop and not have it automatically synch with the server?
Stop the XP service named "Windows Time".
