    We ran into this bug in a production system a few months back. We had a legacy cluster of windows workbenches which connected to each other using an encrypted communications API on an isolated network. We initially couldn’t determine why the system clocks fell out of sync in a rather cascading fashion. Guess this explains it. We ended up resolving it by bridging them to the internet and forcing a sync with time servers. A few months later, it happened again. At the time we thought it to be a bug in Windows. Go figure it was.
