Re: Does SNTP start working immediately?



Sending an IOCTL_SERVICE_REFRESH to SNTP service will cause it to
immediately re-perform the query. We assume if you're sending it this then
you'd want it to re-read and apply the registry settings immediately.

Assuming you have Platform Builder, you can install the SNTP source via the
shared-source option. It lives in <Private>\private\servers\timesvc2\sntp.
Feel free to use newsgroups of course, but for some questions it may be
faster for you to just look at the code.

I have configured the SNTP service as a client with the following values
for
relevant registry entres:

Refresh : 1800000 (30 minutes)
Server: <name of time server>
RecoveryRefresh: 180000 (3 minutes)
AutoUpdate: 1

The other registry entries are set to default values.

My question is: Does the first time sync occur as soon as I send a refresh
IOCTL to the service after setting the registry values? Or does it occur
after 30 minutes?

I need to design this client, but don't yet have a server up and running,
which is why I want to know this.

thanks in advance,
