NTP Server on Windows server 2003

Hi, i have a simple question.

i have a local network with couple of computers one of which is a
Windows Server 2003,

the question is that;

when type: net time \\my_win2003_IP
from one of the client machines

i would like to get date and time of the server. i've read some post
so far but could get it work, can some one give me step-by-step
configuration of Windows 2003?

thanks in advance

net time is outdated, w32tm is the tool of your choice.
