Windows 10: Any known issues with Win 10 machines and NTP settings?

Hello all,

I am stumped on this one and need some help.

There is a GPO in place to point all workstations to the PDC as the NTP server (which is set to an external source).

All of a sudden, all the workstations started to fall out of sync and some are few minutes ahead and some are few minutes behind...

When I check the source on the workstations, they are all set as Local CMOS.

I tried to manually setting the NTP server and while it says the command ran, if I run the /resync, it errors out with "the computer did not resync because no time data was available."

Thinking the GPO is the issue, I moved one of the workstations over to a blank OU and it will allow me to set the NTP setting manually. However, as soon as I restart the w32time service, it just reverts it right back to Local CMO.

When I run the resync, it errors out that "The computer did not resync because no time data was available." whether I have the GPO set or not.

I even tried setting the NTP client locally to point to the NTP pool and that still reverts back.

I am pulling my hair out as I have no idea why the workstations are acting this way.



Any help will be greatly appreciated.

NTP Help

Hi guys, I know this is not the site for bull**** networking but you've been the most reliable tech site I've ever been on for any computer stuff. So I've got a question about a network. I'm with the Marines, and we're running secure networks branching off from everywhere. I mean I'm in Japan right now. But we're trying to sync our hardware (Cisco devices, switches and routers) to NTP. I created a test setup with a router, easy as pie to sync that, but it was a direct connection from the router to our linksys gateway directly to the ISP. But in the real setup, we pull NTP data on every piece of hardware I set up to sync...we just don't sync. "Show NTP associations" shows full reach, stratum 3 servers all working perfect but our offsets are off (I'd love to know what the numbers for offset mean), but show ntp status shows no synchronization, not even a hint that it realizes it's got a working NTP server to pull off of. NTP is supposed to be an easy setup, but for over a month now myself and everyone I know have tried everything from our end to get a sync and we got nothing. Maybe it's not close enough to the NTP time, so we set the time and timezone a billion times, nothing there. I'm assuming since we can pull data from NTP servers, the port's gotta be open right? If it's impossible to sync because somewhere along the way a firewall is blocking it's UDP port, that's totally cool, then I'll have an excuse as to why we're gonna have to manually set clocks. But the fact that it pulls information (diagnostics at least, ping, offset, freq, stratum) I feel like we should be able to pull time, we just can't for some reason. If you guys have any idea what I can do please let me know. Thank you

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
