windows time sync problem

[Pdigmking]

Hello,

I keep getting an error when windows xp tries to verify time. It says
there's been an error because the host stratum is great or less than the
peer stratum or something like that. What the heck does this mean? And how
do I fix it so that the clock updates properly?

Thanks,

Paul.

This be a known problem since the DST patch was installed. Just put a
different time server in the box. I have been using "time.mit.edu" myself.
That one fixed it for me. There are lots of others. Do a google search for
time servers if you need others.
