RE: Windows Time

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Hi Terence - I spoke too soon!

The Windows Time is up and running perfectly but this morning my server
report shows the following message under critical errors:

"W32Time Event ID 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 30 minutes. NtpClient has no
source of accurate time. "

Perhaps you could help me reset my server to acquire time from a time source?

Many thanks in anticipation

Tony
