Re: W32Time




It seems I have resolved using the steps provide. I appreciate.

I do have another issue. We have SIP phones. I would like them to sync w/
the SBS Server. It uses SNTP. How would I configure this?

TIA,

Steve

I would un-link the GPOs you created so they don't effect anything. Then
run the commands below and see how your results are. Once you're happy
with everything, you can delete the GPOs.

If your workstations are not updating to the server, post back and I'll
give you the reg entry to fix that. It's generally set correctly by
default, so I'm guessing your only issue is with the server itself
updating to the external time sources.

Should I delete the Group Policies I configured.

1 Server Policy to configure server to update from ntp source.
1 Server Policy to configure server as Time Server

If I delete these and run the command below would be optimal?

TIA,

Domain-joined client PCs should sync to the SBS automatically, with no
configuration on your part whatsoever. XP clients will log an event
indicating a successful sync when you restart them (not sure if Vista
logs it or not).

To get the server to sync properly, try this:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"0.pool.ntp.org 1.pool.ntp.org
2.pool.ntp.org",0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL
w32tm /config /update
net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync /nowait

I have tried every which way to keep our network sync via our DC (SBS
2003).

Couple Messages:

Event Log
==========
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W32Time
Event Category: None
Event ID: 36
Date: 5/12/2008
Time: 9:52:33 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER
Description:
The time service has not synchronized the system time for 86400 seconds
because none of the time service providers provided a usable time
stamp. The time service is no longer synchronized and cannot provide
the time to other clients or update the system clock. Monitor the
system events displayed in the Event Viewer to make sure that a more
serious problem does not exist.

CMD
==========
"The computer did not resync because no time data was available"

Originally I created a GP and added the default Time Server Enabled
settings and believe everything had worked up until a few months ago.
However, now I cannot get it to sync w/ an external Time Server at all
and have tried the following::

net stop w32time
w32tm /unregister [ignore error message]
w32tm /unregister [enter a second time]
w32tm /register
reg add hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\w32time\parameters\ /v
NtpServer /t reg_sz /d time.nist.gov /f
net start w32time
w32tm /resync

So I guess it would be best to start over I would like the DC to sync
to an external source and the clients would sync to the DC. Correct me
if I am wrong, but doesnt this happen automatically after they login?

TIA,

Steve
