Hi,
When I config the Windows 2000 as NTP client, the time can not be
syncronized. The error message is:
Attemp to set time which differs more than 12 hours aborted.

The NTP server is solaris, and I can syncronize the time between two solaris
platform.

My method as following:

Can you help me? Any help are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Bring up a command prompt window (Start->Run-> cmd) and use the "time"
and "date" commands to get your computer's time set within 12 hours of
the correct time. Make sure your timezone setting is correctly in the
Date/Time control panel.

Hi,
On Solairs, time of NTP server: Mon Aug 22 11:40:30 CST 2005
On Windows 2000, date and time are and timezone is GMT:
The current date is: 2005-08-22
The current time is: 10:41:01:01

Is it the problem about timezone? Can CST and GMT be syncronized?Any help is
greatly appreciated.
Thanks

IIRC, CST is 6 hours behind GMT. So the time on the Solaris machine
is 17:40 GMT and the Windows machine is 10:41 GMT so there is a ~ 7
hour difference in time between the two machines. Try manually
setting the time on one machine or the other so that they match more
closely (in any one given timezone), then try synchronizing.

I change the timezone of solairs server(IP=192.168.168.192):
/etc/TIMEZONE from TZ=PRC to TZ=GMT+8

Timezone of win2000 client is GMT +08.00Beijing,Chongqing, the time
difference is 10 minutes, but it can not syncronize either, it still
says:Event ID - 14 - Attempt to set time which differs by more than 12 hours
aborted .
Here is the result:

C:\>net time /setsntp:192.168.168.192
The command completed successfully.

C:\>net stop w32time
The Windows Time service is stopping.
The Windows Time service was stopped successfully.

C:\>net start w32time
The Windows Time service is starting.
The Windows Time service was started successfully.

C:\>net time /querysntp
The current SNTP value is: 192.168.168.192
The command completed successfully.

C:\>w32tm -s
RPC to local server returned 0x0

C:\>net time \\192.168.168.192
System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.

Can anyone tell me a more detailed procedure on how to config W2K to use
external time server? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
