Guest Harleyd Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 So I have inherited a new location which I am finding some problems with. I am receiving continuous errors in the event log related to time synchronization on our eight 2003 SP2 Domain Controllers. Here is what I am getting on my PDC: Event Type: Error Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 29 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 11:49:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: 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 120 minutes. NtpClient has no source of accurate time. Event Type: Warning Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 47 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 11:49:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually configured peer time.windows.com,0x1 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. Event Type: Information Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 38 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 6:49:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: The time provider NtpClient cannot reach or is currently receiving invalid time data from time.windows.com (ntp.m|0x1|10.XXX.XX.XXX:123->207.XX.XXX.XX:123). Event Type: Warning Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 36 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 6:04:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: The time service has not synchronized the system time for 86400 seconds because none of the time service providers provided a usable time stamp. The time service is no longer synchronized and cannot provide the time to other clients or update the system clock. Monitor the system events displayed in the Event Viewer to make sure that a more serious problem does not exist. Event Type: Error Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 29 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 3:49:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: 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 60 minutes. NtpClient has no source of accurate time. Event Type: Warning Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 47 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 3:49:28 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually configured peer time.windows.com,0x1 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. Event Type: Warning Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 22 Date: 3/31/2008 Time: 6:00:37 AM User: N/A Computer: FDC-P02 Description: The time provider NtpServer encountered an error while digitally signing the NTP response for peer 10.X.XXX.XX:123. NtpServer cannot provide secure (signed) time to the client and will ignore the request. The error was: Not enough storage is available to process this command. (0x80070008) On FDC-P03 time /querysntp shows it configured to Tock.usno.navy.mil, Net time shows it pointing to another DC, FDC-P4 Note that Tock.usno.navy.mil seems to be restricted to just military and gov. On my PDC, FDC-P02 SNTP Query shows it configured to Time.windows.com, Net time shows it pointing to another DC, FDC-P4 On FDC-P04 through FDC-P08 SNTP Query shows it configured to Time.windows.com, Net time shows it pointing to another DC, FDC-P4 FDC-P01 has the Schema and Domain Naming roles FDC-P02 has the PDC, RID and Infrastructure roles Thanks!
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Re: Time Sync Issue on DC's Hello Harleyd, Configure the PDCEmulator to sync with an external time source and reconfigure the other machines to use only domain time. PDCEmulator: 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/ All other machines: To configure a client computer for automatic domain time synchronization 1. Open a Command Prompt. 2. Type the following command and then press ENTER: w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update 3. Type the following command and then press ENTER: net stop w32time 4. Type the following command and then press ENTER: net start w32time Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > So I have inherited a new location which I am finding some problems > with.
