w32time event id 36

[Guest BSC Mike]

i am running server 2003 without AD and getting this warning. kb328621 says

to to point to NtpServer "root ime server that you are using" ie. the PDC.

this is a stand alone member server with no DC's around. what to do? ignore

the warning? i just want a simple uncomplicated dns server.

 

thanks

In a cmd prompt::

 

net stop w32time

net time /setsntp:192.5.41.41

net start w32time

 

Make sure UDP 123 in your firewall (whether a local firewall installed on

the machine as well as your edge firewall and any security software like

McAfee Security center) is opened to this machine or it won't work.
