Hi,

I think that you would need to provide some more information about this issue.

Could you please post some information about whether you are running a server and if so, what OS is it running on?

If it is a windows server, have you checked to see if the time on the computer/workstation matches the time on the server?

Also, when you say log on, are you referring to log on at Windows XP boot time?
try changing the regional setting to the settings of the server.
remember that both the settings must be same and the timing should be same as AM or PM.

Hope this will work for you.

I tried to run net time /domain:<domain name> /set   logged on local administrator but recieved error code 5 access denied. I can reach the domain by going to run   \\domaincontroller   but can not add domain administrator user on the xp machine from control panel users. WHY?  Maybe ministry92 manual process will work

I tried syncing bothe the domain controller and the client separately but still no luck. I think they might be a security issue on the domain controllers active directory
it will

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>net time /domain:hartman /set
System error 5 has occurred.

Access is denied.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>w32tm /resync
Sending resync command to local computer...
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
ministry92, you are the man. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!   The manual worked
