Windows 7 as Time Server
Hello,
I'm working on an embedded software project that sends out SNTP requests. It's on a small test network -- because of the high volume of traffic it cannot be placed on the company network. I need my machine (Windows 7 Pro) to be able to serve time to this
network. How can I set up my Windows 7 machine to do this?
Thanks

I figured it out. I did the following:
1.) Open the Group Policy Editor
2.) Click Computer Configuration , click Administrative Templates , click
System , and then click Windows Time Service .
3.) Click Time Providers , double-click Enable Windows NTP Server in the right pane, click the
Enabled button, and then click OK .
4.) From the Group Policy Object Editor menu, click File , and then click
Exit .
