Windows 2008 server rejects any kind of timeserver sync


hi, i'm getting quite frustrated welcome...

situation:
i'm using 3 (identical) windows 2008 enterprise build 6001 sp1 servers.
2 of servers , workstations need sync pdc.(this works allright)
the pdc needs synchronize time server.(using ntp.xs4all.nl and/or time.nist.gov)

i've read topics like:
http://www.1stbyte.com/2009/04/07/configure-windows-server-2003-and-2008-w32tm-commands-on-domain-controller/
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc759631%28ws.10%29.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773263%28ws.10%29.aspx
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=91969

whatever try, regedit/w32tm /config's nothing seems work.
changes make w32tm /config /manualpeerlist etc visible in regedit , visa versa,
but w32tm /resync return error:
sending resync command local computer
the computer did not resync because no time data available.

when check status:
w32tm /query /status:
leap indicator: 0(no warning)
stratum: 1 (primary reference - syncd radio clock)
precision: -6 (15.625ms per tick)
root delay: 0.0000000s
root dispersion: 10.0000000s
referenceid: 0x4c4f434c (source name:  "locl")
last successful sync time: 5-11-2009 12:09:16
source: local cmos clock
poll interval: 6 (64s)

it'll still it's source cmos.

what's wrong? looking in wrong direction ?


hello,

make sure on dc pdcemulator role, check 'netdom query fsmo', firewall not blocking port 123 udp, otherwise synchronization fails.

i assume run command on it:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:peers /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update

where replaced peers above mentioned time servers.

did run command elevated command prompt, runas?
