One more thing, assuming you are in a Windows 2000 Domain. The only
server where the Net time /setstmp: really does anything is the PDC
emulator. All 2000 DCs will update from the PDC emulator. 2000 Member
servers and clients will update their time from the DC that they
authenticate with.

Net time /setsntp:ntp.ctr.columbia.edu

Then, restart the windows time service.

Hello,

I have a problem.

I have two domain controllers, each in their own site.  I am trying to
configure my main domain controller which is also currently running my
exchange 5.5 mail the sntp server for the domain syncing to an external
time
source.  This external time source I want to use is
ntp.ctr.Columbia.edu.  I
can communicate with this server will no problem, but when I use the NET
TIME \\ntp.ctr.columbia.edu <\\ntp.ctr.columbia.edu>  /setsntp on my
server,
I get an error message.  This error message is System error 1210 has
occurred.  The format of the specified computer name is invalid.  But
the
name is spelled correct and I can get to it.  

Plus when I do a net time on the server it lists the other domain
controllers time.  The other domain controller is in the other site.
The
PDC Emulator is the server on which I am running the above command on.
Any
help would be greatly appreciated.  I don't understand why this doesn't
work
right?
