I you not anal about having every computer on the network with the exact
same time?  I've worked places where they were extremely anal about every
computer must have the exact same time down to the second so some computers
syncing time other than off the domain controller would have been a big no
no?

I never quite understood it, but they seemed to think it was critical to
the IT department for some reason.
