I get these log entries every 2 or 3 days, but I'm fairly certain the sync
is happening most of the time. My packet filter is same as IBC suggests...
Try a manual sync:
Stop the windows time service, open a command prompt, type "w32tm -once" (no
quotes) and see if it connects...
I check this whenever I seem to be getting too many of the log errors - as a
matter of fact I just had one 2 hours ago. I did the manual sync and my
system connected and was only 57ms off...
Probably flaky network conditions or the time server is too busy (?) Also,
I use IP addresses rather than DNS names, seem to have better luck that way.
