Is there in WM2003SE no way to configure an automatic weekly time sync
through wifi network, like in Windows XP and Vista?

The small app. SP Timesync works great, and it is free.

I'll have a look at vxUtil shortly.
Actally, when I was testing SPTimesync initially I was very surprised to see
that time was already very accurate. Later on I realised that I get a time
sync from my BT GPS receiver. That's hence one other way to sync...

I wouldn't use that. I have several times in the past and more
than once it would throw my time of by 10-15 hours!

I have tried the time sync option, but it doesn't seem to work.
Tried different time servers, connected by wifi or BT but after pressing
'query' host time, and waiting for looooong time, I get error: 'connection
refused 10060'.

>> doesn't work, frequent failures <<

Thinking about this, and considering that I have rarely had any problem
and only once have I ever encountered a wrong date and time, I would
guess that the problem is likely that the default time server list
shipped with vxUtil is stale and out of date... fwiw, I have made
significant updates to my list and have a registry file that loads the
updated vxutil list to the ppc registry when cold booting or moving to a
new device.

Further, recently found that the default servers presented by vxUtil are
designed for automatic processes rather than individual devices.

Further research exposed "pool" servers which are specifically designed
for individual computers and devices.
http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html

More info at;
http://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi
http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/WebHome

If anyone is interested, I will update and post my vxUtil timeserver
registry file which will populate the vxUtil timeserver list.
