Time

[William Stokes]

Hello,

How to set up a time sync scheme so that there's one server (W2K3) in the
LAN which obtains time from web and distributes it to clients (XP) and other
servers (W2K3&W2K)?

Thanks
-Will

In the registry your PDC emulating server should be set to 'Type = NTP' and
pointed to external time service provider.

All other computers should be set to 'Type = NT5DS' (default for
workstations) they will synch with their authenticating server, which will
in turn ..... ending up with the PDC emulator which is root of the
authentication tree.

There are two good articles in the KB about how W32Time works, and how to
set up an authoritative time server.
