How to use a public time server?

My computer that I want to keep synchronized with a public NTP time server
is a domain controller (W2k Sp4).
I'm looking at the net time command in the docs but I must be dense :-(
I suppose you gotta write a batch file that executes on startup defining the
NTP server to use so I got
net time /setsntp:tick.utoronto.ca
But executing that command does not change the current time on my machine.
When I then run net time set all it does is take the current tikje on the
machine and asks me if I want to change it to that, deuh?
Exactly how does one keep a machine synchronizing, not just on start up but
at regular intervals, with a public NTP server?
Any help appreciated.
