Time service
« on: October 19, 2010, 10:46:41 AM »
Hi All,
I wanted to know if there is a way to force a W2K server to point to a machine to get its time sync. This machine keeps pointing to a old NT machine and getting the wrong time. I want to force it to look in the AD Domain to get its time


Thanks

Hi All,
I found a regisrty key

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters\NtpServer

I was able to change the name to my AD domain controller. The time service had to be restarted and it all kicked in.

Thanks
