If you upgerade from Windows NT 4.0 and configure W32time to ignore secondary client broadcasts, Windows 2000 continues to monitor secondary client broadcasts?
To resolve the problem:
1. Locate the W32time.ini file and make sure it contain a TIMESOURCE=NO entry.
2. Use Regedt32 to navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
3. Delete the timesource value name.
4. Stop and Start the Windows Time service.
NOTE: While W32time.exe may work on Windows 2000, it is NOT supported.
NOTE: The timesource value name is NOT used to configure the Windows Time service, but its' presence (at least a data value of 1) causes the Windows Time service to monitor secondary client broadcasts.
NOTE: see:
tip 2466 » Time sources for the Windows NT Time Service.
