To the list,
Has anyone gotten multiple Dns or IP address NTP servers to work on Windows
2000 SP3 via the net time /setsntp command. I am trying to reconfigure about
100 Windows 2000 Servers to talk with tock.usno.navy.mil and if that is
down, talk with tick.usno.navy.mil
So I do the following on my servers.
net time /setsntp:tock.usno.navy.mil,tick.usno.navy.mil ( command completes
successfully)
when I run w32tm -v -once to debug the output ( i put a false DNS address
called dumb.dumb.org so it should look like the following)
net time /setsntp:dumb.dumb.org,tock.usno.navy.mil,tick.usno.navy.mil
( command complete successfully)
When I run w32tm -v -once, it goes to dumb.dumb.org ( no address, it bombs (
as I expected,) but never fails over to tock.usno.navy.mil, or
tick.usno.navy.mil)
I knew there was a bug in the Windows time service for SP2, but this is SP3
and I did check the Q285641 and I am fine on this server and the others.
Anybody successfully set this up and verified that it does work as expected?
