XP command line:

Perhaps the response will give a clue.
To set it:
net time \\servername /set /yes
Net time is only used to set time from a domain controller, not an ntp
server.
They use two completely different protocols.
however,
NET TIME /SETSNTP:ip-of-ntp-server
WILL set the windows 'internet time' server IP.
NET TIME /QUERYSNTP
will show the current 'internet time' server(s).
note that the default Windows NTP client is really braindead, it just
'sets' the system clock once a day, its not a proper NTP
implementation. for most users, this is fine, but realize oddities can
happen like the clock being set back a few seconds such that a given
time happens twice.
