Sync Time with Local W2K machine?

I downloaded a NTP time server (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nettime) and installed in on my W2K Server Box... I pointed /config/timeserver0 to the IP address of the box and it will not sync the time. I think it may have to do with Aud using the time port 37 instead of the daytime port 13...
Am I on track?

That wasn't it.. I ended up having to point all of the Timeserver entries Timeserver0,1,and 2 to my time server. After that it started working? I wonder why just changing Timeserver0 didn't work?

Maybe it works backwards? Starting with #2?

You may be right... I'll try just setting Timeserver2 and leaving 0 and 1 alone and see what it does...

Stange behavior.... I changed Timeserver2 to point to my local computer, and reset Timeserver0 and 1 to point back to the normal sites and it still tried to go to the internet to get the time.... Only when I reset all Timeserver's to point to my local time server did it stop.... Does anyone have a clue as to why?

Audrey doesn't use NTP (port 123) to sync time, it uses the older unix timserver protocol (port 37). I know this because I had to open a hole for Audrey in my firewall.

Could you summerize the setup of the timeserver on your W2K machine. It would be nice to have that layed out for other to follow....?

Sure, it ended up pretty simple.

I downloaded the freeware application "abouttime" from http://www.arachniod.com and used it to sync the time for my W2k box. This software also has a timeserver built in. I then edited Timeserver0,1,and 2 and pointed them to my W2k box.

Works like a champ.
