Do a google search for atomic clocks or time servers... I used to have one on my pc that updated itself 24 times a day, or whenever you set it, and you could set it to connect to one of over 30 other atomic clock servers for accuracy.

The network is peer to peer with no server. Each computer has various pieces of testing equipment attached to it that need to be accurately time synchronized with each other. This lab will not be connected to the internet. I don't see a method to change the synchronization server in WinXP to use another PC (only a domain server). I used to do time sync with NT server and batch files but that was once a day a login. Given the discrepancies in type/models of PCs, and the inherit unreliability of PC clocks, this would probably need a constantly running process. Any ideas?
