Guest tedmi Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Windows Server 2003, SP2, only DC in domain, running AD, DNS, File&Print. W32time gives this series of events in the System log: Information, ID 38: The time provider NtpClient cannot reach or is currently receiving invalid time data from nist.netservicesgroup.com (ntp.m|0x0|x.x.x.x:123->y.y.y.y:123) (where x.x.x.x and y.y.y.y are IP addr. of local and time servers, respectively). Warning, ID 47: Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually configured peer nist.netservicesgroup.com after 8 attempts to contact it. This peer will be discarded as a time source and NtpClient will attempt to discover a new peer with this DNS name. Error, ID 29: The time provider NtpClient is configured to acquire time from one or more time sources, however none of the sources are currently accessible. No attempt to contact a source will be made for 15 minutes. NtpClient has no source of accurate time. I have scrupulously followed the instructions in KB816042. Using nistime-32bit.exe, which also claims to be using UDP port 123, I can get a response from this same server. Any help appreciated. -- TedMi
