For those that still wondering about sync time in client with AD DC :
To update, use the command below (2008 and 2012 server compatible)
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"ntp_server" /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
change the ntp_server with your source
Restart the time service
net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync
Verify your sync status
w32tm /query /status
Commands above should be fine if your sources are working correctly and/or your connection is OK (firewall or Microsoft Forefront can be an issue also). The commands below can help with troubleshooting
To list out peers
w32tm /query /peers
To list out NTP Sources:
w32tm /query /source
For troubleshooting, it's often useful to test the connection to a specific server:?w32tm /monitor /computers:time.windows.com

2 年Be careful of timezone patches released by Microsoft periodically. Once NTP settings are done you should have an eye on that
