The error is: ERROR_TIMEOUT winerror.h # This operation returned because the timeout period expired.
It means it can't contact pool.ntp.org. For say "one minute" disable the windows firewall. See if you can do the "resync rediscover". If it works, turn back on the windows firewall, and enable the exceptions in the firewall that someone disabled. If it doesn't work, then it's upstream. Whether your local firewall/router or your ISP. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jimmy Tran Sent: Friday, February 3, 2017 6:46 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] RE: can't set NTP time source on PDC Sorry, I was using a different app, not telnet that was querying udp. I guess wireshark is the next step. Thanks for the tip. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Buff Sent: Friday, February 3, 2017 3:39 PM To: ntsysadm <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] RE: can't set NTP time source on PDC Um, telnet only works over TCP, not UDP. I don't think you were testing what you thought you were testing. You could try this: https://github.com/besimorhino/powercat if you want to test UDP Or, more likely (if you don't want to install Wireshark on your machine) you could use the trace functionality in netsh to verify what packets are sent and received: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd878517(v=ws.10).aspx Kurt On Fri, Feb 3, 2017 at 3:13 PM, Jimmy Tran <[email protected]> wrote: > I get errors when I run that: 15:05:47 error: 0x800705B4.
