I have a very small domain consisting of one domain controller and a member
server. I've tried configuring the DC to synchronize its clock with an
external source following MS article: How to configure an authoritative time
server in Windows Server 2003 (816042). My DC does have the PDC operations
role assigned to it. However, I keep getting the following errors logged in
my System Event Log:
Source: W32Time
Event ID: 38
The time provider NtpClient cannot reach or is currently receiving invalid
time data from time.nist.gov (ntp.m|0x8|192.168.99.28:123->192.43.244.18:123).
Source: W32Time
Event ID: 47
Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually
configured peer time.nist.gov,0x8 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.
Source: W32Time
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. No
attempt to contact a source will be made for 15 minutes. NtpClient has no
source of accurate time.
I then performed the "fix" from this Microsoft article since it described
the symptoms I was experiencing: Time synchronization may not succeed when
you try to synchronize with a non-Windows NTP server in Windows Server 2003
(875424). Unfortunately, this didn't solve the problem.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks. Here are my registry entries for the Windows Time Key:
