Domain Server Wrong Time

As a result all clients in our domain have a wrong windows time.

Domain server wrong time. I think last time i looked at some ms technet pages some information on the time service was either wrong or misleading. As stated in the headline our domain controller runs on windows server. Show activity on this post. I know how to change the time and i belive we setup an ntp server on the dc and ensured time sync was turned off on hyper v.

The following time. The hyper v host is joined to the domain. C documents and settings administrator net time querysntp. The windows firewall needs to allow udp traffic on port 123 for ntp to work.

The time on my domain controller is 5mins out compared the 123 clock. It s easier to see change the current state config of the windows time client server time service by using this tool rather than dicking around in the registry. Unfortunately the time on the domain controller is off by a couple of minutes. Yyy is also a domain controller and used to be the pdc before i transferred the role to xxx.

I have a three domain controllers in my domain. I don t really want to keep setting the time. The registry has two locations of importance when it comes to windows time. When i run net time querysntp it appears it should be syncing with these time servers.

I have a domain controller running in vm on hyper v the time seems to be steadily getting faster over the x mas period it s 5 faster which seems odd. Could it be the time on these servers are wrong or is my server not updating. If your computer is part of an active directory domain you need to understand the architecture of time synchronization in the ad domain. Net stop w32time net start w32time.

Xxx is the pdc and is syncing time with external time servers. Check the event logs for any errors with the time sync process.
