The way I do this is to add my time servers to the ³to² list on the NTP system policy of a ³chosen² ISA box, and to have that box set to update NTP to those servers. I use the Navy boxes in DC and FL as my corp office is on the East Coast. Then, I point my operations master DC to the ISA box, and have all the other DC¹s point to that DC. Internal resources automatically sync time to the DC¹s, so this keep the entire infrastructure perfectly timed. t On 5/30/06 10:46 AM, "Ball, Dan" <DBall@xxxxxxxxxxx> spoketh to all: > I spent many hours on this same problem here.
