Assuming you have NETbios services, there was a set of utilities in an 'ancient'
issue of PC Mag.  (I have no clue as to which issue.)  There were two programs,
one which ran as a sort of time server on the server machine, and a second 
which is run on the remote stations.  The original source is in assembly, and
I'm almost positive I still have it somewhere.  I also rewrote the 'remote' 
program in c to add a few things.  I'll send you (and anyone else) the source
if/when I find it.

I've been using it on the network I manage for over three years now - with zero
problems.  Can't ask for better than that, eh?
