It can work, what problems are you having? What kinds of errors and what are you using?
W2K3 is supposed to answer for both IIRC, but that was in the archives. There are still some nuances that might be getting in your way. You know, the nuances about how an RFC is interpreted when it says things like "SHOULD" vs. "MUST" :) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Creamer, Mark Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2005 1:51 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] W32Time and *nix Folks, I'd like to throw this back out for comments if I can. A while back I asked about using our current W32Time server, the forest root AD box, as the authoritative time server for the non-Windows clients on our network. I haven't had any luck getting this to work. If I remember correctly, W32Time is a derivation of the NTP protocol, (is it SNTP maybe??). Anyway, nothing I've tried enables the Linux and Unix boxes to sync with this server. One article I read said it will not work, but you obviously can't rely on everything posted on the net :-) Am I missing something, or do I need to maybe look at a 3rd party solution to handle all of the time services? What are some of you using for this situation? Thanks! Mark Creamer This e-mail transmission contains information that is intended to be confidential and privileged.
