NTP+PPS works just fine on XP/32 and Win7/32.
Here is what i have on ntpq -p

remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
oGPS_NMEA(1)     .GPS.            0 l   72   16  360    0.000    0.108   0.008

Unfortunately, when I test it on Win2008 R2-64bit, PPS driver does not start.

I followed instructions on and did all the steps carefully, but it keeps 
failing.

My configuration is as follows:
-----------ntp.conf------------------
server 127.127.22.1 minpoll 4  #PPS
server 127.127.20.1  minpoll 10 maxpoll 10 mode 16  prefer  #GPS,BAUD:9600
fudge 127.127.20.1 flag1 1 flag3 1 stratum 0
--------------------------------------

Here are some screenshots:

1.      The windows event log states NTP error messages

2.      Environment variable setting

3.      COM1 driver details for Serialpps.sys

i think the serialpps is not working, so I tested different driver versions, 
but none worked!
serialpps-20090606
serialpps-20091228
serialpps-20120321-signed

Maybe I missed something along the way?

1-Is the "not digitally signed" normal in screenshots 3??
2-Any one tested PPS driver in win64 successfully?

Regards,

To check that your environment variable is correct, try:
  dir %PPSAPI_DLLS%

Here's what I get:
C:\Users\David>dir %PPSAPI_DLLS%
 Volume in drive C is Alta system disk
 Volume Serial Number is 40B6-09AE

 Directory of C:\Tools\NTP\PPS

20/07/2011  03:51            69,120 serialpps-ppsapi-provider.dll
               1 File(s)         69,120 bytes
               0 Dir(s)  26,077,392,896 bytes free

The serialpps drivers kindly supplied by Meinberg /are/ signed, so please check you are using the correct download. The link I have is:


http://support.ntp.org/people/burnicki/windows/serialpps-20120321-signed.zip

which should now be:
  http://people.ntp.org/burnicki/windows/serialpps-20120321-signed.zip


I did find at one stage that the .BAT file suppled didn't do the whole job, but that was likely some time back, and on XP. Note that I kept the DLL (and all other NTP files) well clear of the limited \Program Files\ directory. See my guide here:

  http://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/setup.html

However, I have no recent experience of Windows Server.
