I use the gateway as the time server due to proxy problems getting to the public time servers, and do this:

# Setup time server on windows
if [ "${os}" = "windows" ] ; then
  # Use gateway for time server
  timeserver="`netstat -r | fgrep 0.0.0.0 | head -1 | awk '{print $3}'`"
  echo "Using time server ${timeserver}"
  net stop w32time
  net time /setsntp:${timeserver}
  net time /querysntp
  net start w32time
fi

Some windows expert can comment on how good this recipe is.
