Question : Can't figure out how to MOVE time server to a new DC
|
|
I currently have three 2003 domain controllers. DC1 is currently configured as a time server, syncing to an outside NTP source. I need to demote DC1 from a domain contoller, disable it as a time server and make DC3 the new time server. I'll use http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816042 to make DC3 the authoritative time server, but before I do that, how do tell DC1 that it's NOT the authoritative time server?
Thanks,

net time /setsntp
do not use any variables with it. Just enter the command as it is. This will remove any configured time settings, and DC1 will then (if not a domain controller) simply look towards it's authenticating domain controller for time data.
Make sure you have made DC3 an authoratative time server before you demote DC1.
