Hi there!
I´m trying to implement a NTP server on a linux box, the majority of my clients
are windows XP and some linuxes.
I´m trying to automatically synchronize those clients to NTP server, across
DHCP options to try to send the IP and NTP server address as well as the
correct time zone (UTC-X & UTC-Y).
The results on my test on linux clients are that they take the NTP server
address but not time zome but the windows clients seem to ignore any NTP
settings.
I´ve read the references on microsoft sites, but they are poorly on releases
near to WinXP. I´ve modified the _register_ with the same result.
Those are the options I´ve used to send NTP server settings and timezone:
option pcode code 100 = text;
option tcode code 101 = text;
option ntp-servers 10.X.X.X;
option pcode "CST6CDT";
option time-offset -21600;
I´m not using a Domain Controller(I don´t need it), so according to docs in
Microsoft setting the NTP server address on a windows client though command
line it seems to run OK, on command line but it does not keep the settings.
net stop w32time
net time /setsntp:10.X.X.X
net start w32time
net time /querysntp
In resume I haven´t found the right way to put my clients to synchronize with
NTP server.
P.S. I post it in this list by the relation to NTP server expecting to find a
way for solution.
Tnxs in advance.
César
