So we lost a few machines off the network at 00:46 and they immediatly
recovered, looking further into the event viewers shows that a number
of XP workstations are configured for hibernation and when they
hibernate they dissapear from the Network as well.
Also for our time synchronisation we use Tardis and K9 on our servers
which works fine, most of the workstations have been left to fend for
themselves as far as time is concerned as we haven't configured the DC
to get time from outside, it gets the time from Tardis as well.
Is it possible that W32 could have knocked machines off the network at
the same time, I have sorted the W32 issue out on those machine and
they haven't left the network since then.
Could anyone explain the implications of having W32time trying to hard
to get a time and continously failing.
Thanks
Ed
