Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a domain

October 6, 2008

The time on our servers (and domain) is about 5 to 8 minutes fast. I am

trying use an external source to set time in a domain environment. I have

been having problems following the directions in the following article:

How to configure an authoritative time server in Windows Server 2003

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;816042

I have two w2k3 standard edition SP2 servers. One server is the PDC, but

when you type net time, it is pointing to the GP server. On the GP server it

points to itself. I have made all suggested changes in the above article,

and tried different time servers. I even tried using the command line:

net time: / setsntp:timesource - completed but no change, also tried:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:TimeServer(both w/ 0x1 and w/o)

/syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update -- NADA

On the PDC - the log indicates:

Event ID: 35, the time service is now synchronizing the system time with the

time source gp.local (nep.dl192.168.1.14:123->192.168.1.22:123).

If go to the GP and try the same command, (get 2 different errors:)

Event ID: 14, The time provider NtpClient was unable to find a domain

controller to use as a time source. NtpClient will try again in x min.

Event 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.

I have opened port 123, and pinged the time server, but get the same results.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

dbright19,

Reread the time sync documents. Your main DC - (the one with the FMSO

roles - there is no "PDC") should get its time from an authoritative

external source, not from the GP Server.

See -

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/262680

http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/NTPPoolServers

Every other domain member will sync to the DC, including the GP Server,

if it is a member of the same domain.

Hello dbright19,

On one of the DC's run "netdom query fsmo" in a command line and find the

DC which holds the PDCEmulator role. On this DC you have to set the external

time source. If netdom is not found on the machine, install the support\tools\suptools.msi

on the DC from the installation disk.

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/

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

I followed the suggestions and still have the problem, and thanks for your

suggestions. I got the following information from running "netdom query

fsmo" on both the PDC server and the GP server :

Schema owner xxxxxxx-pdc.xxxxxxx.local

Domain role owner xxxxxxx-pdc.xxxxxxx.local

PDC role xxxxxxx-pdc.xxxxxxx.local

RID pool manager xxxxxxx-pdc.xxxxxxx.local

Infrastructure owner xxxxxxx-pdc.xxxxxxx.local

SO:

timex.peachnet.edu --> 131.144.4.9

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:131.144.4.9 /syncfromflags:manual

GP:

w32tm /config /update /syncfromflags:domhier /reliable:yes

each command completed with no errors. I have the same problem. Both

servers seem to be looking to GP

Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

dbright19,

On the PDC, what does the System Event Log show when you

restart the Windows Time service?

The GP Server is a Personnel / File Server.

The GP Event Log:

Source: W32Time

Event ID: 29

Computer: GP

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.

For more information, see Help and Support Center

at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

REPEATS but changes the minutes from 15 to

30 / 60 / 120 / 240 / 480.

Also at same time:

Source: w32Time

Event ID: 14

Computer: GP

The time provider NtpClient was unable to find

a domain controller to use as a time source.

NtpClient will try again in 15 minutes.

For more information, see Help and Support Center

at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

Event log On PDC:

Source: W32Time

Event ID: 35

Computer: PDC

The time service is now synchronizing the

system time with the time source

gp.xxxxxx.local (ntp.d|192.168.1.14:123->192.168.1.22:123).

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

Hello dbright19,

Because all computers in a domain belongs to the time on the PDCEmulator

it can not use a domain member as time server. The x.x.x.22 is domain internal.

On the PDCEmulator you have to configure to an domain EXTERNAL time server.

See this one:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc786897.aspx

Or see "Configuring the Windows Time service to use an internal hardware

clock":

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816042

In a domain the PDCEmulator is the time source, all DC's sync with it and

all member servers and workstations sync with one available DC, that's the

way in a domain.

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

Hello dbright19,

Your command:

w32tm /stripchart /computer:131:144.4.9 /samples:10 /dataonly

should be:

w32tm /stripchart /computer:131.144.4.9 /samples:10 /dataonly

Difference is the ":" between 131 and 144, must be "." Or is it a typo?

If i run w32tm /stripchart /computer:131.144.4.9 /samples:10 /dataonly:

Tracking 131.144.4.9 [131.144.4.9:123].

Collecting 10 samples.

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

Re: Using external NTP time source to set time on W2k3 svr in a do

It was a mistake / typo . Here is the corrected command and the results:

C:\WINNT\Profiles\Administrator>w32tm /stripchart /computer:131.44.4.9

/samples:10/dataonly

Tracking 131.44.4.9 [131.44.4.9].

Collecting 10 samples.

The current time is 10/8/2008 2:13:07 PM (local time).

14:13:07 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:10 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:13 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:16 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:19 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:23 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:26 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:29 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:32 error: 0x800705B4

14:13:35 error: 0x800705B4

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance.
