[KLUG Members] ntpd

[Peter Buxton]

Well, W32time, which is controlled by the system command w32tm.exe, is
the NT service for time tracking. Once I discovered that ntpd had been
working overnight, I found it had synched the one XP box I had been
fiddling with.

Thanks for all the help everyone gave. I'll try to relocate and post the
w32tm.exe commands I used, too.

I haven't tested the following .reg file yet, but probably will sometime
tomorrow: 


REGEDIT4

;
; This will allow us to co-ordinate time with a Unix ntpd server.
;

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\W32Time\Parameters]
"NtpServer"="time,0x1"
"Type"="NTP"
; was "time.microsoft.com,0x1" and, um, "NT5DS" or something 
; similar (not "SNTP", I would have remembered that).
