Hi All

Is there a way to change the Time/Date settings in Target Designer?
Specifically disabling auto time syncing with Microsoft time server. I
tried to make a custom component with the registry setting in
CurrentControlSet, but it didn't seem to work.

thanks for your time

You should be able to modify the registry value in target designer. The
value you want is:

KeyName:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters
Set "Type" to "NoSync"

The Key is created in the "Time Service Core" component.
 
Hi Gordan

I went to the "Time Service Core" component and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters
"Type" is not listed.

thanks for the quick response

Correct - "Parameters" is created, but Type isn't. What that implies is
that the valid is created during runtime. The question is (and is only
really answered through experimentation) does it overwrite a value you
create? You could add a "Type" with a value of "NoSync" and see if the
run-time creation of "Type" checks for a previous value. If it wipes out
your value... it didn't. If it wipes out your value, then you need to
replace it's value during FBA (run a scirpt, etc.).
