Hi,
I am trying to sync both my call manager and unity machine to an external NTP server (which happens to be a cisco router, I use "ntp master").
The way I understand it, windows 2000 has a native "W32time" service which is an SNTP time server that you can use to sync with other external SNTP time server.
Call Manager comes with its own NTP which has it own
"C:\winnt\ntp.conf" configuration file. Now can both Win32time service and Call NTP service running at the same time on the same box? Since they are both using udp port 123, would that cause a conflict?
Since the Unity server does not have NTP Service running, is it possible to sync the Win32time service with an external NTP Server which happens to be a cisco Router?
Can native windows 2000 W32time sync with a Cisco router which also acts as an NTP server as well or the W32time can
only sync with a "SNTP" device since the implementation of SNTP is not the same as full-blown NTP. The reason I asked is that I keep seeing error messages in the Unity server telling me that it can NOT sync with an External NTP Server which happens to be the router. No firewall blocking whatsoever because the unity server and the NTP server are residing on the same network.
Anyone has seen this problem before? Please help
