Re: [OT] Time sync on my domain

Just FYI: either use: au.pool.ntp.org or all of these: 0.au.pool.ntp.org 1.au.pool.ntp.org 2.au.pool.ntp.org 3.au.pool.ntp.org     Regards, Matt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.

I can see that this command has updated the registry.   I’ve tried all sorts of w32tm and net time commands to force the machine to update the time accurately, but it remains about 90 seconds fast and all of the other machines are following it. One site says it might take more than an hour to resync, but that’s long overdue now. These instructions are good as well: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816042 and I’ve followed its advice on using an external time source.   NEWS: I might have made a mistake in the peer list, so I’ve changed it to this so I have 0x1 after each name. That might have caused trouble, but I’ll have to wait see if it comes good.   /manualpeerlist:"ntp1.tpg.com.au,0x1 time.windows.com,0x1"   Greg   Ps. It’s “real” Win3K machine running my DC.
