Hello,
can somebody help me with explanation how can I set the Time Server Search Order in DSC 8.6 Run-Time System? I can set it in development environment, but how can I transfer this to the Run-Time machine?
I want to synchronise a system clock of the machine to another machine acting as the time server, running NI Time Syncronization service.
Is it better to use standard Windows XP sync routines instead of NI ?
Thanks a lot,

I've just run into the same issue. Does anybody have an answer to this?

Hi David,
after trying NI approach ( I've got some tips from support, you should edit the Registry ) I found it just don't work well, so I have disable it completely and move to Microsoft mechanisms for clock synchronising. Looks like NI still didn't work this out as it should....it's a shame aince this is very fundamental stuff.

Thanks for the reply romp,
What Microsoft mechanisms are you referring to... internet time servers? That isn't an option for me because my automation network is isolated from the internet for security reasons. Is there another way to synchronize time?
