I have 100 Linux clients and a Windows Server 2016 in a closed network environment. I would like to have the Ubuntu clients time sync with the Windows Server's date-time. I have done this on internet-open clients but I've not found found how to do this in a closed environment with Windows as the NTP server.

Time synchronization as a client is handled in Ubuntu by a systemd task. Check the manual for timesyncd.conf but you can set the server list to fetch time from for timedatectl and timesyncd in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.
Then simply configure your Windows machine with a proper ntpd service.
