If the Linux box is running Samba, it can provide date/time to Windows boxes
that request it using the DOS command:
net time /set /yes \\SAMBABOX
I usually put that command in a batch file and put the batch file in the
Startup folder on Windows boxes. That keeps their time from drifting too far
under normal circumstances.
Any system/device that can use rdate or NTP can get time from a Linux box.
As noted in another post in this thread, NTP requires the installation of
xntpd or equivalent.
