I have an application that is very time sensitive. If the client and
server times are off by more than 5 seconds it will not work.

I have my domain synchronizing with three external sources - this works
fine.

Desktops and servers update their time automatically (all AD defaults)
nothing changed.

My problem is that the desktops get out of sync in-between updates so I
want to force all machine to update more often (every 30 minutes)


I want to do this via AD GPOs.


What is the right setting. I have been reading this TechNet but it is
not obvious what to change! I have played with the
"SpecialPollInterval" and "UpdateInterval" and they do not seem to
work.


What is the correct GPO or registry key?
