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

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.

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

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

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

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.
The current time is 08-Oct-08 19:11:04 PM.

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.
