First, by default, a Windows NT4 PDC is NOT a NTP server. You will probably need to add a service and have it get its time somewhere. Then, your server will become a "real" time server. Go on Microsoft Support web site ( http://support.microsoft.com ) and search for either TimeServ or W32Time for more details.
