Using w32time or an SNTP as a time provider?

No standards-compliant NTP or SNTP server is reportedly capable of synchronizing with the Microsoft Windows w32time services. Further, NTP clients are not generally capable of synchronizing with an SNTP server. Open Source (Free) NTP servers (qv: OpenNTP) are available for Microsoft Windows platforms, and TCP/IP Services and third-party packages all provide NTP servers for OpenVMS, and NTP and SNTP clients can synchronize with these srvers.
