I have a Phone Server with the correct time, and I want
my DC's to sync time with it. I am running Windows 2000
with AD. Anyone have a login script that would work.

There is only one time authority on a domain, your PDC emulator is it. DCs
will synchronize by default with it, and clients will synchronize with their
login servers.

If you need to synchronize your PDC emulator with an external time like the
one on your phone server, net time sntp at the PDC emulator only.

Breaking the time hierarchy in a W2K domain is the same as a heart-attack.
Running a script that redefines the time authority on a domain essentially
detroys a domain. Virtually nothing in W2K communications operates without a
time stamp. This includes replication, logins, kerberos, tickets, etc.

Get yourself a copy of the TimeService.doc file in the W2K whitepapers
section at MS.
