| | Windows Time Services fails to start on Windows Vista The Windows Time service fails to start on Windows Vista. When attempting to start manually via services.msc the following error appears: --------------------------- Windows could not start the Windows Time service on Local Computer. Error 1792: An attempt was made to logon, but the network logon service was not started. This occurs on both an Vista Enterprise and Vista Ultimate running in a Windows 2003 R2 native Active Directory domain. All other domain functionality is fine (Kerberos, LDAP) and the computers are able to join the domain and receive GPO updates. However no time synching is done because time service is not running on these Vista clients. All XP and 2003 clients have Windows Time Service running. Any help on this issue would be appreciated. -- Edward Ray CCIE Security, CISSP, GCIA Gold, GCIH Gold, MCSE+Security, PE |

| | Re: Windows Time Services fails to start on Windows Vista 1. You need an "always on" internet connection to do the following. Or, you have to log on to the internet if you are using a modem. 2. Right click on the clock. Go to adjust Date/Time 3. Click on Internet Time 4. Click on "Change Settings" 5. Click on "Update Now" Did it adjust the time? If not, try a different time server. There are five to choose from, by default - unless you add more. -- Regards, Richard Urban MVP Microsoft Windows Shell/User "Ed" <walker.ed@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1174401491.526173.7390@y66g2000hsf.googlegroups.com... >I have the same problem and am not running through a domain.

| | Re: Windows Time Services fails to start on Windows Vista I don't even show the "Internet Time" option on that screen. This sounds like something is missing. I'd welcome your help.

| | Re: Windows Time Services fails to start on Windows Vista Jim, are you in the US? Chris Dixon that was having this problem was doesn't change the default values to something that is based on the country selected. I am also running Home Premium and once I followed Richard Urbans's directions, mine has worked just fine., although I had to get away from time.windows.com. This link will show you servers in other countries is that is your issue. http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2a.html "Jim" wrote: > I also get an error message from all 5 clocks.

| | Re: Windows Time Services fails to start on Windows Vista Sounds like the firewall could be preventing the connection. Do you have Time service running? What does the event viewer tell you? Look at System under Windows logs. I think the time service uses port 123 to try to make the connection. In Norton, I think that is controlled by Program Control in Internet Security and Firewall Options. W32tm is a service, so I would look at/for Microsoft Services and Controllor Application C:\Windows\system32\services.exe Might be a question for Norton.
