Windows Date & Time

[Guest]

I have a question about windows date and time. McAfee SecurityCenter
Firewall placks the IP of the Time servers.

I know you have to allow the IP address 129.6.15.28 for the time server
time-a.nist.gov to work.

Does any one know the other IP addresses for the other time servers?

doing a ping of time.windows.com tells me its address is
207.46.130.100

You simply find out what the www names for the sites are and you Ping the
WWW site to return the IP from the site. You can go to the clock in the job
try, right-click the clock, go to Adjust Time, go to the Internet Time tab
to the Change button to see the names of the sites that Vista will connect
to.

I gave McAfee Firewall full access to the Time Executable program
dlcqtime.exe and then it can access any time site you select to update your
time.
