Windows Server 2003 Windows Time Sync


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi All,

 

I am getting the below error on all servers that are configured with windows

time sync. I have configured with a external time source using NTP. I fix a

hotfix on the microsoft website regarding this problem, but was applying it

does not work...I am so stuff on this problem. I have so many event log

entries for this problem. Is there a way stop it producing event logs.

 

Please Help...Thank you very much.....

 

Source: W32time

Event Id: 50

 

The time service detected a time difference of greater than 0 milliseconds

for 900 seconds. The time difference might be caused by synchronization with

low-accuracy time sources or by suboptimal network conditions. The time

service is no longer synchronized and cannot provide the time to other

clients or update the system clock. When a valid time stamp is received from

a time service provider, the time service will correct itself.

Hi Ketz,

 

Im not sure exactly how your time service is config'd so i'll share with you

the simple proper way to do it, for you to check against your setup...

 

Only have your PDC emmulator server sync to an external time server. All of

your other (post 2000) windows servers and workstations should not be

adjusted; upon joining the domain they automatically point to the PDCe for

time. If they have been changed, an easy way to fix them is to run a

net time /setsntp:

at a command prompt, which should put the registry value of nt5ds back into

the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters

key.

 

On the PDCe you can simply set the external time server by running a

net time /setsntp:[your chosen time server goes here]

 

Once you have done this restart your windows time service and then run a

w32tm /resync /rediscover

command on your PDCe.

 

Then check if you have any errors.

 

Here is a list of time servers you can use...

Re: Windows Server 2003 Windows Time Sync

 

Thanks for your quick reply.

 

I have basically configured window time sync on each server to point to an

external source. The reason why I did this was because each server takes

over 20-30min to get an update time from the domain controller. Is there a

way for the servers to get an update every 60 secs.

 

Thanks you

Hi Meinolf,

 

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

This does work. thank you. but i still get the:

Source: W32time

Event Id: 50

The time service detected a time difference of greater than 0 milliseconds

for 900 seconds. The time difference might be caused by synchronization with

low-accuracy time sources or by suboptimal network conditions. The time

service is no longer synchronized and cannot provide the time to other

clients or update the system clock. When a valid time stamp is received from

a time service provider, the time service will correct itself.

Re: Windows Server 2003 Windows Time Sync

 

Hello ketz,

 

Did you change back the configuration like Coraleigh mentioned? You have

to configure in the domain only the PDCEmulator for the external time source.

And do you have additional errors in the eventviewer?

Re: Windows Server 2003 Windows Time Sync

 

This has been done, but like I previously said it take 30-40min for the time

Hello ketz,

 

Can you give some more info about the network setup? And also a bit how your

DNS is set up.

 

Best regards
