MS Client for NetWare Does Not Synchronize Time with Server |
Q136591
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 95
SYMPTOMS
The Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks does not synchronize time with your preferred NetWare server.
RESOLUTION
To synchronize time with a server, include the following line in your login script or in a batch file in your Startup folder
net time -s \\<NetWare server> /y
where <NetWare server> is the name of the server you want to use.
The Microsoft Service for NetWare Directory Services behaves similarly to the Novell VLM client. This service automatically synchronizes time with the server unless the following command is encountered in the system or user login script:
set_time {on | off }
MORE INFORMATION
Novell's redirector, NETX, automatically synchronizes time with the preferred server if the following statement does not appear in the Net.cfg file:
set station time = off
You can also synchronize time with NETX using the "set_time {on | off }" statement in a login script.
For additional information about these statements, consult your NetWare documentation or local Novell reseller.
