It is current set to local but the time is off so I wanted to set it to an outside time source. When I run “w32tm /query /status”, it shows (source name: “LOCL”). So now I run “w32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:pool.ntp.org /reliable:yes /update” and it completes successfully. I’ll restart the time service and do a query again but it still shows LOCL. I am doing this on the PDC on the domain. I’ve tried a reboot and even unregistering w32tm but nothing helps. I’m out of ideas. Thanks, JT
