Hello,
I think the simplest solution is just ignore the warning message when the
laptop is on the road.
After your computer is joined to the domain, your computer clock is
synchronized automatically by a network time server. If all the network
time servers are not available, the warning messages like your current one
will occur. This will happen when the laptop is offline. However, you could
just ignore these warning messages and the clock will be synchronized when
it is reconnected to the domain. Moreover, it is not recommended to disable
clock synchronization on your computer. It is important to synchronized all
clients clock in the domain. Otherwise, some services and applications
might not work properly.
If you really want to use different settings, you can configure a laptop to
use an internet time server on road and then configure the laptop to use a
domain time server in domain environment.
To automate the operation, you can consider creating two batch files.
For more information on how to configure time server, please refer to the
following Microsoft Knowledge Base articles:
307897 How to synchronize the time with the Windows Time
service in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;307897
314054 How to configure an authoritative time server in
Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;314054
Please refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article to get a
list of internet time server:
262680 A list of the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) time
servers that are available on the Internet
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;262680
I hope this helps. Thanks.

| Hello
| What is the best practise to configure the W32Time Service on a laptop
with windows xp?
| When the Laptop is conected to the domain, then it will get the time from
the time server(W2K3 DC with PDC).
| But when the Laptop is on the Road, then I get the following message:
| Source: W32Time / EventID: 14
| The time provider NtpClient was unable to find a domain controller to use
as a time source. NtpClient will try again in 15 minutes.
| For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
| Source: W32Time / EventID: 29
| The time provider NtpClient is configured to acquire time from one or
more time sources, however none of the sources are currently accessible. No
attempt to contact a source will be made for 15 minutes. NtpClient has no
source of accurate time.
| For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
| Is it possible, that I can confgure to settings. 1 for internal an one if
the client is on the road
| Thanks for any advise
| Kind Regards
| Dani
