Syncronizing time: Server 2003

J

JR

Hello folks

I've got a big problem. We have a Server 2003 controlling our network
(AD inside). The folks that installed it (and which I can't
contact...) set it up so it would sync time with outside and then send
that time to the rest of the network. Problem is, the clock is
permanently 8 minuts late!

I know that, when they set this up, they ran a registry "patch" with
the following code (I've replaced the server's name with
OUR.SERVERNAME.DOMAIN.PP for this):

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Config]
"LastClockRate"=dword:0002625a
"MinClockRate"=dword:000260d4
"MaxClockRate"=dword:000263e0
"FrequencyCorrectRate"=dword:00000004
"PollAdjustFactor"=dword:00000005
"LargePhaseOffset"=dword:02faf080
"SpikeWatchPeriod"=dword:00000384
"HoldPeriod"=dword:00000005
"LocalClockDispersion"=dword:0000000a
"EventLogFlags"=dword:00000002
"PhaseCorrectRate"=dword:00000007
"MinPollInterval"=dword:00000006
"MaxPollInterval"=dword:0000000a
"UpdateInterval"=dword:00000064
"MaxNegPhaseCorrection"=dword:ffffffff
"MaxPosPhaseCorrection"=dword:ffffffff
"AnnounceFlags"=dword:00000005
"MaxAllowedPhaseOffset"=dword:0000012c

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters]
"ServiceMain"="SvchostEntry_W32Time"
"NtpServer"="OUR.SERVERNAME.DOMAIN.PP,0x8"
"Type"="NTP"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpClient]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"InputProvider"=dword:00000001
"AllowNonstandardModeCombinations"=dword:00000001
"CrossSiteSyncFlags"=dword:00000002
"ResolvePeerBackoffMinutes"=dword:0000000f
"ResolvePeerBackoffMaxTimes"=dword:00000007
"CompatibilityFlags"=dword:80000000
"EventLogFlags"=dword:00000001
"LargeSampleSkew"=dword:00000003
"DllName"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\w32time.dll"
"SpecialPollTimeRemaining"=hex(7):00,00
"SpecialPollInterval"=dword:0000012c

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpServer]
"InputProvider"=dword:00000000
"AllowNonstandardModeCombinations"=dword:00000001
"DllName"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\w32time.dll"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Enum]
"0"="Root\\LEGACY_W32TIME\\0000"
"Count"=dword:00000001
"NextInstance"=dword:00000001


I've tried setting up time sync following the instructions in:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pr...hnologies/security/ws03mngd/26_s3wts.mspx#EBB

both the registry entries AND the manual comand line use of 132tm but
no luck... allways still late...

Any ideas?

Hello JR,

See your other posting and please do not multipost, use crossposting. One
post to different groups and one answer, as a result, to the different groups
makes it easier for everybody here.
