Title: RE: [ActiveDir] net time

I have no errors or warnings in my DC logs.  Every DC can connect to the PDCE.

 

I guess I will have to setup each server manually.

Have you checked your event logs?  Usually it will tell you the reason why it cannot contact the PDCE or give you a hint.  It is usually DNS that is the culprit.  I set all of my DC's manually regardless as I do not want my DC's in London or Japan syncing with a PDCE in Philadelphia over the WAN but rather a local time source on a well connected high speed LAN.

 

 

Regards,

 

Dave

But you shouldn’t have to do that, shouldn’t they find the PDCE on their own?

net time \\DC1 /setsntp:DC2

 

 

NET TIME [\\computername | /DOMAIN[:domainname] | /RTSDOMAIN[:domainname]] [/SET]

That is the thing, all my other DCs point to a DC that is not configured as the Authoritative Time Source

 

For Example

 

DC1

DC2 - PDCE

DC3

 

DC2 is set to time.windows.com

 

Run a net time /set on DC3 and it asks if you want to reset the clock to the one on DC1

 

Net time /querysntp on DC3 and DC1 returns that the sntp is not configured

 

Net time on DC3, DC2 and DC1 shows the time on DC1

That's the way it's supposed to work.  All your DCs will act as time servers and your clients will synch with them.  They just synch their time with the PDC-E which should be set to use and outside time service.

Everyone,

I have my PDC Emulator on a server that is set to a SNTP server on the web, however all my others servers when I type in net time /set point to a different server that holds no roles what so ever for AD, it is just a DC.

What am I doing worng.
