Hi Amanda,
I'm by no means an expert in this subject matter of W32Time Service, but
I'll try to assist you to the best of my
ability.
Period : REG_DWORD or REG_SZ Used to control how often the time service
synchronizes. If a string value is specified, it must be one of special ones
listed below. If you specify the string value by using the numbers (65535
for example), then create the value as a REG_DWORD.
If you use the word to specify the string value (Bidaily for example), then
the entry should be created as a REG_SZ. 0 = once a day 65535, "BiDaily" =
once every 2 days 65534, "Tridaily" = once every 3 days 65533, "Weekly" =
once every week (7 days) 65532, "SpecialSkew" = once every 45 minutes until
3 good synchronizations occur, then once every 8 hours (3 per day) [default]
65531, "DailySpecialSkew" = once every 45 minutes until 1 good
synchronization occurs, then once every day <freq> = <freq> times per day.
