mcnallyfc Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 Noticed today that the FRDC has the wrong time. Its 5 mins fast and so all PCs have wrong time on them! Have checked server and getting error 29 saying its configured to acquire time from one or more time sources but none are available. I have tried setting the ntp servers manually and also trying the microsoft online fix it tool but that doesnt work. Also tried pinging these ntp servers on name and IP but getting no response so wondering if firewall issue? all our servers go through county so may need to speak to them?
ICT_GUY Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 Its working through SWGFL, I set mine up again this weekend. 1

kmount Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 Don't use ping, chances are it's blocked. Just try it and see if it works.

ICT_GUY Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Have you tried resetting your main server manually? This would at least sync everyone to roughly the right time.

kmount Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Contact your ISP to request the details of their time server if they have blocked your outbound attempts.
pscott Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Have you tried using the SWGfL ntp server?
timzim Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Do you have a firewall between your server and the LEA?
SpuffMonkey Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 I had a problem with that too - and I use Truetime Winsync Winsync - Free Winsync Downloads now
mcnallyfc Posted September 15, 2010 Author Posted September 15, 2010 (edited) Have you tried using the SWGfL ntp server? yep as per ICT_GUY's post i tried that using name and IP Do you have a firewall between your server and the LEA? No we currently have direct connection to them Contact your ISP to request the details of their time server if they have blocked your outbound attempts. Have logged a call with them for their details - for meantime have manually set it Edited September 15, 2010 by mcnallyfc
diggory Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Your master DC for time (the PDC/PDC emulator by default) will be the one with a ntp running. You can query it with the w32 command in the cmd console: w32tm /monitor That should show you which of the DCs is the master time controller in your domain. There are some other options for the w32tm command which are handy for checking the sync etc... A lot of the settings can be set with group policy.

The server is the master DC for time - all others point to it with the w32tm /monitor command
