Hi - I upgraded to XP Home SP2 and have a great cable modem internet
connection. On WIN98SE I used D4 and AutoMachron to sync with the
timeserver all the time, so I know the firewall in my router isn't a
problem. Under XP. I can't sync time. I Do Not have the Windows
Firewall enabled, and I'm running Mcafee (though disabling mcafee didn't
help).
When I try to use time.nist.gov in the Internet Time Tab of Date and
Time Properties, I get 'an error occurred when Windows was
synchronizing with time.nst.gov'.
When I try time.windows.com I get the weird error "the time sample was
rejected because the peer's stratum is less than the host's stratum".
I checked the knowledge base but nothing jumped out.
Anyone know what's blocking time for me?
thanks!
