Windows2003 can not sync to external network NTP/SNTP device

I am on an enclosed LAN. We have an NTP/SNTP device that is providing SNTP
to all of our Windows2000 server - successfully.

My issue is that we have introduced a new Windows2003 server, and for some
reason we can not sync with this device.

How can I sync with this device like we do with our other 2K servers?

 

Any chance that UDP 123 is not allowed between your new server and the time
source?

Your PDC emulator (which is probably also your FSMO role holder) should be
the only system synching to an external device. All other DCs should sync to
it. All the member servers and clients should sync to their logon servers. A
good illustration of this is at
.

One choice is to configure all the other servers to sync from the domain
hierarchy.
%windir%\system32\w32tm.exe /config [/conputer:<target>]
/syncfromflagsOMHIER
or see "Restoring Windows Time service to default settings" at

Restarting the time service is required to pick up the change.

"Administering the Windows Time Service" at
<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc782712(WS.10).aspx> is worth
your time.

I used netmon.exe to see what was happening and here is what it logged in
response to issuing the w32tm /resync command

Src IP Address: local
Dest IP Address: myServer
Src Other Address: myServer
Dest Other Address: NTP network device
Protocol: UDP
Description: Src Port: Network Time Protocol (123); Dst Port: Network Time
Protocol (123)

I logged until the w32tm /resync command errorred out.

Which server in this scenario is myServer? 2000 or 2003? And what do you
think this netmon tells you?
