     TIME ZONE will be changed to the time zone stored in the source server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
     SERVERID will be changed to the IPX INTERNAL NET value stored in the source server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
     DEFAULT TIME SERVER TYPE will be changed to the value stored in the source server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
     BINDERY CONTEXT will be changed to the bindery context stored in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file of the source server.
     DEFAULT TIMESYNC TYPE will be changed to the value from the source server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
     TIMESYNC TYPE will be changed the value retrieved from the SET parameter on the source server, not from the AUTOEXEC.NCF
     file of the source server.
