If they log as root, no.
IF they don't know what they are doing sysadmin-wise, you can start up ntp on each user box, and have it run against a time server that the users cannot change. When the user changes time settings, ntp will slowly correct it.
They log in as themsevles.
the issue is that with ntp ( which we are running) the change it too slow and is throughing things out of wack, is there a way to just lock it down
What privileges do those users have, sudo access to date? To allow them to change system time.
yup, but we are barginging on them not doing this, theuy would do it via the gui only
