W32time question

I have 4 PCs running windows 2000 on a home LAN - workgroup rather than
domain. If I have one of the machines time sync with a public NTP server can
I then have the other machines connect to that machine for time sync
purposes or will that only work in a domain setting? If so, are there any
configuration items that I need to set or does the windows time service
automagically do all the right things for that to work.

thanks for any feedback

Try...

net time \\W2_Name /set /yes

However, it is static setting. It will only synch. at the time the command is executed.
