I have a Beaglebone connected to my windows 7 PC via ethernet. I need current time on the embedded board for logging purposes. I used to use battery with an rtc chip to keep time there but I thought that an esier way to do this, since im connected to my pc anyways to download time on startup. I would just use the installed ntp client on beaglebone. The problem is that I have no internet there and it is not neccesary, so I cannot connect to the ntp server on the internet. I can though, connect to a server that would be running on the connected windows 7 PC. I was wondering either anyone could point me out an easy way for configuring an ntp server on a windows 7 machine, i would aprichiate any help.

Ensure 'Windows Time' service is set to Automatic.
Also, ensure UDP inbound to port 123 is permitted
Paul RoubIf time precision is important for you logging purposes and you have a budget so I would like you to take a look at NTS server, it also hosts NTP/SNTP and gives <1ms time sync precision on the LAN while Windows w32time has around 30 secs inaccuracy.
