>If you have a similar situation, my advice is to have the workstations hit a server using DCOM or IIS or something and get the time that way. Also, creating a file on a mapped drive should give you the time on the server if you wanna mess with that.

Bit of overkill, don't ya think? Just use NET TIME right before you check the system time (this assumes a time server, but it's easier to set that up than DCOM).
