[gptalk] Re: Default Homepage Mess..

Thanks Shane, i just noticed the Time issue. And truthfully, that could very
well be the issue.

But, what's weird is when i execute the following command on PHPRINT1, the
server that has the wrong time, the time doesn't sync with the right DC. i
have the DC manually configured in the registry and when i do a net time
/querysntp, the right time server comes up -- but the time doesn't change to
the correct time ?

W32tm /config /synchfromflags:DOMHIER /update

net stop w32time && net start w32time

when i run on repadmin /showreps -- i get succesfull results as well.

any ideas?
