That is: does this PC have to have this same address or not? I am sorry; pretty much a newby on this terrain I'm affraid > Why don't you just look at how the previous server was configured > (the one that was in use by the existing clients) and copy that? There was no time server before this one; the clients were just prtepared for such a service, the service itself was never there. Therefore, no possibility to peek...
