MORE INFORMATION ================ Using NET TIME Under Windows for Workgroups Version 3.1 ------------------------------------------------------- The NET TIME command can be used in Windows for Workgroups 3.1 only if you have a LAN Manager version 2.0 or 2.1 server installed as a secondary network. This command synchronizes the clocks of computers in a workgroup to a LAN Manager server that has a shared clock.(If there is no shared clock, you can't use the NET TIME command.) To synchronize the clocks of all the computers in a workgroup with a shared clock on a LAN Manager server, type the following at an MS-DOS command prompt net time /workgroup: where is the workgroup on which you want the clocks to be synchronized. For information about how to share a clock on a LAN Manager server or peer workstation, see the "LAN Manager Installation and Configuration Guide." Using NET TIME Under Windows for Workgroups Version 3.11 -------------------------------------------------------- Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 allows you to synchronize your computer's clock with a Windows NT, or LAN Manager server (with a shared clock) using the NET TIME command. For specific instructions, type "net time /?" (without the quotation marks) at the MS-DOS command prompt and then press ENTER.
