Yes, the recommendation is to use an internal hardware clock: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=816042 Tony -----Original Message----- From: ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M.

Why don't you want to sync externally? Your BIOS battery is probably going south. -ASB FAST, CHEAP, SECURE: Pick Any TWO http://www.ultratech-llc.com/KB/ On 9/1/05, Patrick Paul wrote: > > > The time on my server is constantly increasing and is clearly wrong.

And please be sure to note the part of Michael's mail below here he said "stable". I once talked to a customer who was syncing DCs to an external clock that rolled back ~20 years. I assure you that was not the best day ever for this admin. :) ~Eric -----Original Message----- From: ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tony Murray Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 6:00 PM To: ActiveDir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Time on server Yes, the recommendation is to use an internal hardware clock: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=816042 Tony -----Original Message----- From: ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M.

How about synch'ing it with an internal source that is stable? Remember that it needs port UDP 123 open.

Then you better be resetting the clock manually until you find what is wrong with the server. If it isn't syncing with anything, then its internal clock is fubar. How is tomorrow BTW, looks like you are sending this a good 4 hours before I am responding. :o) joe From: ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ActiveDir-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Patrick PaulSent: Thursday, September 01, 2005 12:27 AMTo: ActiveDir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [ActiveDir] Time on server The time on my server is constantly increasing and is clearly wrong.

I have had time increase problem on older servers after I upgraded from PII to a PIII (while ago). I needed a bios update to fix the actual problem. Look for bios upgrade if you want to try fix the root of the problem.
