Hi,<br />
<br />
I have posted a question regarding timesync some time ago: <a href="https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/27578837/Correct-setup-time-sync-domain.html" rel="ugc">https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/27578837/Correct-setup-time-sync-domain.html</a><br />
<br />
I just wonder if it is not simpler to set timesync via policy? Why was suggested to do it manually as there is a policy available? Then again it seems to cause issues by default: <a href="http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/sanderberkouwer/archive/2010/09/10/active-directory-time-sync-broken-by-default.aspx" rel="ugc">http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/sanderberkouwer/archive/2010/09/10/active-directory-time-sync-broken-by-default.aspx</a><br />
<br />
Please advise how to configure it + check for correct config/get alerts if issues.<br />

Timesync domain via policy + monitor (Windows  2008/2003 mixed domain)

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.

Windows XP

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
