I'm about to demote my last Windows Server 2003 DC, but I need to configure my new Server 2008 PDC box as an NTP server. &nbsp;I have a high-end Cisco router that I would like to use as the NTP server for my network.<br />
<br />
How do I do this in Server 2008? &nbsp;I can only find a proper guide for Server 2003 and I don't want to take any chances with network time getting messed up.<br />
<br />
Thanks
