Does anyone have a controller running 6.4.3.5 getting time via NTP from Windows Server 2012R2? - Ours will not get the time. Here are a couple commands which show to me, it is configured right. The Server does supply time to a Hewlett Packard 2920al switch, but the controller will not sychronize.

What is the difference in time between the controller and the NTP server?  Do you have the Timezone as well as the clock summer-time parameter set?

The time difference is 47 seconds. Both are set to Eastern Standard time, both have summer-time set.

You should let it sit to see if it gets closer.

Hi,

Did you solve the problem? What's the solution? I have the same issue.

Don't worry. I found the solution.

If the Windows Server has no Internet, you can make the Windows Server more trustworthy by reduce the Dispersion to 0 (in Registry).
