Hi,

My server is always about 12 minutes behind. Where does it get its time
from, the bios? How (exactly) can I synch with an outside source for
perfect accuracy?

Thx,

D

Hi Dana:

Try this:

To sync the server to an Atomic clock on the internet:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:time.nist.gov,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL
net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync /nowait

and make sure the Time service has been started on the server. If you run
these commands and you see that time service is restarted everything should
be ok on the server.

Hi Larry,

Worked perfect, thx so much. What if the server reboots?

BTW, where are all the other newsgroups? In OE none of the server or office
newsgroups show up in my list ( I did reset it). Nor can I find any Win7
newsgroups. Should I be looking elsewhere?

Newsgroups hosted by Microsoft are on their final days. Most have already
been retired. Everything is moving to "Forums" and suggest looking here for
SBS and a launching spot for others you may want.
