Hello world,
I am looking for a simple answer on a question with a million posts...
Virtualized DCs NOT holding any FSMO roles - can they serve time to their client PCs?
I have 2 physical DCs, one holding all FSMO roles and syncing to an external NTP server.
I have the 2nd physical DC syncing time off of the domain hierarchy...
I now have these last two DCs that are virtual and cannot determine whether to use w32tm.
I have found conflicting articles stating to NOT enable w32tm due to it syncing externally and causing issues with syncing its time to clients and then having issues due to Hyper-V time lag... I understand the goal is for the virtual machine to get its time from its host, but what about the client machines authenticating from it?
Any help would be appreciated as I feel like its been information overload from the Tech net Forum, MSKB, and the Windows Team Blogs...
