Windows Time

[Ian McCulloch]

Hi
I established a new authoritative time server on my network - it is synching
with an external source properly

Example
Previous time server/PDC - DC1
DC2 gets promoted to PDS/authoritative time server
DC3 is still looking to DC1 for time even after changing the Windows time
service config on the previous PDC emulator

Event ID 35
The time service is now synchronizing the system time with the time source
dc1.abc.com (ntp.d|192.168.1.37:123->192.168.1.7:123).

Any ideas?
