Guest Meinolf Weber Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Re: time synchronisation in windows 2003 server Hello saujan, See also your other posting "time synchronisation in windows server 2003 network environment" in microsoft.public.windows.server.active_directory Time sync in a domain works as follows, the PDCEmulator is the time source in the domain for all DC's, all member servers and workstaions sync with one available DC. As described in your other posting in the above mentioned NG, normally the time sync works automatically and you have nothing to do, except to configure the PDCEmulator to an external time source. If the DC is the PDCEmulator use this command to sync it with an external time source: w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:peers /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update With "peers" you can set the time source, either DNS name (time.windows.com) or an ip address from a reliable time source. Here you can find some of them: http://www.pool.ntp.org/ To find out your DC with the PDCEmulator role run "netdom query fsmo" in a command line.
