You might also use the Windows-Time-Service. So you don't need to 
give "Everyone" the right to change the time.

- Install, config and start an ntpd on a server (e.g. your Samba-Server)
- login to the Workstation as Admin and set the "Windows-Time-Service"
to start "automatic" (Control-Panel-Configuration-Services)
- go to the windows-command-line and type: 
  net time /setsntp: <ip of time-server>

With this setting you don't have to sync the time in the login-script,
it's done by the Windows-Service.
