How to keep corporate Blackberry devices “on time”

besblackberrysecuridtime-synchronization

Does anybody know if the BES Server has any option to "provide" the time to the devices on sync?

The issue here is, we have users travelling to other Time Zones who are changing the TIME of the BB instead of the TZ, but that's playing havoc with things such as calendars, etc and will impact a future deployment of Software-based SecurID tokens.

Now, if there was a way to have BES provide the time (a-la NTP), the user would have/be limited to changing the time zone, and that's something the devices/software can live with

Thanks

On the device itself you can select the option to sync to the blackberry time source from inside the Date/Time settings.

There is not settings in the IT Policy to force these settings however. Reference Guide for BES IT Policy
