asked on

time sync between computers in same workgroup.

Dear experts,

I am having a problem synchronising the time between computers in same workgroup.
This is the whole situation:

I am synchronising computer 1 with a time server in an another domain.
Then i want to synchronise computer 2 with computer 1 and cmputer 3

Time zones are equal on computers.
i already used and tried the commands :
 
Net time \\computer1 /set /y
net time /setsntp:computer 1

When i try to synchronise computer 2 with computer 1 i get "error 5   access denied" same thing with computer 3.
I get this error also if i try to sync computer 2 or 3 with timeserver in domain mentioned above.
Synchronising computer 1 with timeserver in that domain is no problem.
Also synchronising computer 2 with computer 3 is no problem.

I am lost here.

what settings can be different?
why cant i sync computer 2 or 3 with computer 1?

ok, again.

I was realy trying to be as clear as i could :)  

i got some computers in a workgroup. (computer 1 till 3)

There is also a domain, they can connect trough a router/firewall.
The connection trough router from workgroup to domain is always alowed, from domain to workgroup has restrictions.

The why of this construction is not important.


What i want is this:

Sync computer 1 with timeserver in domain.

then sync other computers with computer 1. Thats it.


The following things i tried to do to find out what problem is.: (--> means result)

sync computer 2 with 1 --> system error 5 acces denied
sync computer 3 with 1 --> system error 5 acces denied
sync computer 1 with 2 --> no problem
sync computer 2 with time server --> system error 5 acces denied
sync computer 3 with time server --> system error 5 acces denied
sync computer 2 with 3 --> no problem

so somehow i cant get all the computers to sync with computer 1, but they are all in the same workgroup (computer 1 till 3).
timezone is equal
date is equal
