Network time out of sync
Good day,
I recently took over a job as sysadmin on three sites.
On all three sites the network time is out of sync.
Scenario1:
Server 2008R2 domain controller (Only server on network)
Time on server and workstations 4 mins ahead
Scenario:
Server2008 domain controller (Only server on network)
Time on server and workstations 10 mins ahead
Scenario:
Server 2012 domain controller (Only server on network)
Time behind by 2 mins
Is it possible to just manually correct the time on the server and let it sync through to the workstations,without causing any issues on the domain.
Thanks in advance
