We're running in an account as an administrator (the only account on 
the laptops) and the program just calls system(time xxxx) and 
system(date xxxx) after reading it from a connected GPS receiver.  I've 
fiddled with everything I could find in the registry and with the 
secpol.msc program and there doesn't seem to be any reason that it 
can't set the time, but it can't.  Any ideas?

Thanks!

Bob
