W32time

[jdiffend]

I am in California and have tried about 50 different
public time servers yet still continue to recieve errors
like "NTP server did not respond" has anyone got any info
on finding a public time server, or setting up w32time on
a server. I have tried both DNS and IP yet still canot
find a server to respond. router is set up correctly (I
believe) its just a bit annoying.

thanks a bunch

UDP 123 is required for SNTP servers, is that port open?

Yes it is. I have also listed the DNS and IP address in my
DHCP options (#4 i believe)in hopes that might cirrect it.
Thankyou for both your feedbacks, It gives me a great
starting point

thanks again
