Hi Guys,
I have a customer who has problems with synchronizing a Windows 2003
Server (SP2) with one of our NTP Servers (runs NTPv4).
Anyone who has successfully managed to sync her/his W2003 box with a
V4 ntpd and who could give me some hints regarding the correct
configuration? Some kind of registry export would be nice, I could
compare such a thing with the one I have from the customers server...
Oh, before you ask: No, it is not possible to install "real" NTP-stuff
on that machine, I cannot get any Ethereal dump or have other
diagnostic possibilities. All I know is that according to the
eventlog W32TM is trying to synchronize, fails a couple of times and
gives up. It then marks itself "unsynchronized" and all clients are
free running like hell.
... and yes, I asked Microsoft as well but did not receive a reply so
far...
Thanks in advance,
Heiko
I have successfully used the procedure given in the Brandolini and Green
white paper: "The Windows Time Service" on W2K and WXP. Sorry, I don't
have W2K3 to play with.
net time /setsntp:<ip-address of server>
net start w32time
That is exactly what does not seem to work.
I believe that Microsoft generally does NOT reply unless you PAY them.
We have a few contacts to MS support, they come and ask us about our
products when their customers want to use them and we never charged them
a buck for this (I know, I know, that doesn't make a big difference ...)..
Thanks for your help,
best regards,
Heiko
