How to sync Server Clock with the Internet

0 Comments

The purpose of this short tutorial is to set the server internal clock, which will be synchronised with the internet rather than the local BIOS clock. A Bios clock can get inaccurate over time and this would be something we do not want to happen.

To do so, start the CMD as Admin and type the following:

w32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:"pool.ntp.org" /reliable:YES /update 

This inputs the config entry into the registry.

In order to sync the time with the internet:

w32tm /config /update 
w32tm /resync

These commands refresh the configuration and resync the time with the server

Once the clients in your network relog their time will get resynchronised with the server.
