w32time on 2 Windows 2000 Domain Controllers

Hello,
(ALL WINDOWS 2000 Servers)
I have 2 domain controllers who are both set to sync to an external source (time.windows.com)
Data1 is a DC and FS1 is another DC
Data1 seams to be the primary b/c all clients sync to that server
FS1 even syncs to Data1.

Why are all the clients syncing to Data1 and not evenly between FS1 and Data1.
Why is FS1 syncing with Data1?
How can I see the settings to see who is the primary? How can I change those settings?
Thanks

You can find all the settings in the registry. Please check this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223184

I hope this helps!

They are both marked as having a reliable time source:

ReliableTimeSource : REG_DWORD (optional)
Used to indicate that this computer has reliable time.
0 = do not mark this computer as having reliable time [default]
1 = mark this computer as having reliable time (this is only useful on a domain controller)

Is this where it states the PRIMARY time server?
