Q:  As recommended in the documentation, we turned on the ªNetwork Time Standardº feature in NetInfoManager.  Now one machine is our time server and all other machines are time clients.  This is great, except that I can't set the time on the time server with the Preferences application.  It tells me time service is running and I should click the ªSynchronizeº button.  So, how do I set the time on the Network Time Server? 

A:   The only way to set the time on Network Time Servers is to use the date command from a shell.  See the Unix man pages for more information on date.  For more information see ªConfiguring Network Time Serviceº in Chapter 3 of the NeXTSTEP Network and System Administration Manual.
