Stephen Wintle Stephen Wintle Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-04-10 Posts: 444 Loc: England	Hi, Please help I am desperate and have tried various things such as following suggestions from the event log etc. but to no avail. i'm gettting the following message when triying to log onto clients (w2k server /w2k client) when they try to login to the domain it says" there is a time difference between the client and server" In addition when trying to manaually force servers to synch get the following message "RPC is too busy to complete operation". It seems as if the time between the servers in askew but I cant find much useful advice on net. Could anyone help? Really is causing big problems at my school. I have always used 'net time \\[servername] /y to time synch and never caused prob until yesterday.. Thanks Steve W. _________________________ Dont worry because a rival imitates you.

Make sure all the clients or DC's are in the correct time zone _________________________ If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. There's no use being a damn fool about it. - W.C Fields

I suspect this is not the case as it's not out-of-the-box functionality. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Reality check... AD does not come configured "in a box" hence the reason I said properly configured. In AD, users should never have the permission to change the system time with the NET command. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

Unfortunately, I think there are more improperly configured AD installations out there than properly configured ones because Microsoft creates the impression that AD is easy to install via a couple of wizards. Unfortunately, AD is not just like an NT4 domain, just better. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.
