Date and Time synching

I have a windows XP client who VPNs into our Windows 2003 server with the windows provided VPN connections. He is Eastern time and the server is Central time, and everytime he VPNs, the machine synchs its time with the Server and reverts to Central.

I have a windows XP client who VPNs into our Windows 2003 server with the windows provided VPN connections.
 
He is Eastern time and the server is Central time, and everytime he VPNs, the machine synchs its time with the Server and reverts to Central. This causes some problems with his Outlook, as many appointments move down one hour when this happens, and he constantly has to change his computer back to Eastern.
 
Is there a way to stop this synchronization?
 
Thanks.

Not sure if this will help or not...but maybe.
 
Goto control panel.
Date and Time.
Internet Time tab.
Uncheck "Automatically synchronize with an Internet time server"
 
Which most windows servers are (internet time server), on a domain.

The Internet Time Tab isn't there, since the computer is part of a domain.

You could always disable the Windows Time service.

Would that affect Outlook and time zones? Does anything else majorly depend on that service? Thanks.

Nope, it only deals with time syncronisation (with Microsoft's public time server by default, unless on domain), and nothing depends on it.
