To compare the system clock with real internet time, go to http://www.time.is.
To see the source of time for a computer, from an admin command prompt, run:
w32tm /query /source
For more information, run this:
w32tm /query /configuration
Possible responses:
- The hostname of a domain controller, which means it is getting the time from another domain controller
- Free-running System Clock, which means it is keeping its own time
On the server that is keep its own time, to change the time source to pool.ntp.org, run this:
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"pool.ntp.org" /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:YES /update
net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync /force
w32tm /query /source
This might take a few minutes to gradually drift back into sync.
