Hello everybody (sorry for my bad english...)

I've a windows 2003 DC in my LAN and I want it to synchronize with a NTP
Linux server which is in my DMZ.

I know that I've to allow the ntp protocol (port 123/udp) on my FW. It's Ok.

How can i configure my DC settings to enable the synchronization mechanism.

I've tried the following commands, but i don't know if i'm on the right way:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:10.X.X.X /syncfromflags:MANUAL

where 10.x.x.x is the Linux Server IP Adress then i've done:
w32tm /config /update and

w32tm /resync

Is this the good way ? How can I verify or monitor this synchro ?

Thanks for your answers...
