I'm pretty sure that it's possible to run both NTP and W32TIME at the same time on the same Windows system provided that only NTP is used to keep the clock under discipline and W32TIME is used solely to provide the time for the domain workstations.
In order to do this, the NTP service is added to the dependency list of the W32TIME service through the Platform SDK utility SC: sc config w32time depend= NTP It's also necessary to disable W32TIME from trying to discipline the clock using the registry editor (REGEDIT) under HKLM\CurrentControlSet \Services\w32time: [TimeProviders\NtpClient] InputProvider=DWORD:0 [TimeProviders\NtpServer] InputProvider=DWORD:0 This will cause NTP to start before W32TIME and thus NTP will take over disciplining the Windows DC clock and the domain workstations will still communicate with W32TIME.
