Hi all,
i have follows these instructions to the letter, and have confirmed the values
exist and are accurate in the registry of the 2008r2 DC, it remains 10 minutes
off
All the computers, clients and servers, have the same time so its not causing
any authentication issues (thankfully) but its annoying not be able to get the
correct time
First, locate your PDC Server. Open the command prompt and type: C:\>netdom
/query fsmoLog in to your PDC Server and open the command prompt.Stop the
W32Time service: C:\>net stop w32timeConfigure the external time sources, type:
C:\> w32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual
/manualpeerlist:”0.pool.ntp.org,1.pool.ntp.org,2.pool.ntp.org”Make your PDC a
reliable time source for the clients. Type: C:\>w32tm /config
/reliable:yesStart the w32time service: C:\>net start w32timeThe windows time
service should begin synchronizing the time. You
can check the external NTP servers in the time configuration by typing:
C:\>w32tm /query /configuration
when i run this command w32tm /stripchart /computer:0.pool.ntp.org /samples:5
/dataonly
C:\>w32tm /stripchart /computer:0.pool.ntp.org /samples:5 /dataonly
Tracking 0.pool.ntp.org [15.126.193.186:123].
Collecting 5 samples.
