This problem has been vexing me for the past few days now. Whenever I execute the "net time" at a command prompt, I receive the following error: Net time A System 5 error has occurred. Access denied How can I be denied from viewing the time?? I am also unable to synchronize with the time server(a WinServer 2003) I am set up with administrator rights. Any ideas on what's wrong? As far as everything else, our network is fine.

Your access is local - you are not requesting a local service. Perhaps a necessary port is blocked - probably a UDP port. To view the time, try "time". Time synchronization is automatic at startup (if the service is running). Other than that, ask in the Windows 2003 Server forum.
