Time sync problem on one computer (SBS 2008)
Posted on 2013-11-19
I have an Small Business Server 2008 domain with 4 pc's attached.
3 pc's run Windows 7 pro, the 4th runs windows XP pro.
The server has the correct time. Three of the 4 pc's have the correct time. The Dell T3400 running Windows 7 pro does not have the correct time. On the T3400 I ran:
w32tm /resync
Response:
"The computer did not resync because no time data was available"
I searched the internet. Responses there discussed inaccurate time on the server. My server has the correct time and so do most of the pc's.
How do I fix the problem on the T3400?

it could be the bios battery is flat - if so replace it (it should read 3V)

What happens if you run: net time \\yourservername /set /yes
If the time is correct after running this command, it could be a problem with your time configuration.
Please run: w32tm /query /status
Post the output here on EE.

Hello nazg82:
When I run net time \\yourservername /set /yes
I get:
Current time at \\ML350 is 11/21/2013 01:39:16
Local time <GMI =08:00> at \\ML350 is 11/20/2013 22:39:16
ML350 is my server.
I have no idea as to why the command I typed produced 2 different time results.
The server shows the correct time on its clock in the lower right of the screen.
I tried typing
w32tm /query /status
in the command box, it tells me it's an invalid dos command.
I am not a computer expert. Please tell me all the steps I need to do to get a result from the w32tm command.
Thank you for your help.
