The W32TIME service

[donp]

I am having a problem with the W32Time service.

The W32TIME service changes from automatic to disabled on
our domain controllers. The service dos not always stop.
When rebooting the service needs to be enabled and
restarted.
The PDC emulator is syncing time with the National
Institute of Standards and Time and domain controllers are
syncing with the PDC emulator.

Thanks Daniel
I found the setting under default domain controller's
policy\system services\windows time. It was set to
disable. I changed it to automatic. Everything looks ok

Thanks again
