A calculation of a time interval across the leap second has a similar ambiguity. There are no easy solutions to these ambiguities because the format of NTP messages does not have any means of distinguishing between the two seconds that have the same name. This has the same ambiguity problem of the NIST standard method, and also puts the extra second in the wrong day. This has the advantage that the clock never stops or appears to run backward.
However, it has both a time error and a frequency error with respect to legal UTC time during the adjustment period. To make matters worse, there is no universal way of realizing this idea, so that different systems that use this method may disagree during the adjustment period.
Both of these methods have the correct long-term behavior, of course, but neither of them is consistent with the legal definition of UTC.
Therefore, any application that requires time that is legally traceable to national standards and uses these methods to realize the leap second, will have a time error on the order of 0. All NIST time services provide some advance notice of the leap second, but the details vary from one service to another.
Many desktop systems do not have any native support at all for leap seconds, although there are some third-party applications that do this. The simple text file, leap-seconds. The structure of the file is explained in the comments section of the file. The file is updated at least twice per year based on messages received from the International Earth Rotation and Reference Service iers.
Levine [at] nist. Requests in these formats generally do not support authentication, and no keys or passwords are needed to use these services. In addition to these services, we provide authenticated NTP messages using a symmetric-key algorithm that is compatible with the reference implementation of the NTP software.
For example, see www. This service is provided by servers that are independent of the systems described in the previous text. All of the servers are synchronized using the same algorithm, and the accuracy of the time stamps at the server should be comparable for any one of them. The accuracy of the time stamps as seen by a user will usually be determined largely by the stability and reciprocity of the network connection between the server and the user's systems. See the authenticated NTP description for more details.
Internet time code protocols are defined by a series of documents called Request for Comments, or RFCs. These documents are available on-line from several sites on the Internet. Large computers and workstations often include NTP software with their operating systems. The client software runs continuously as a background task that periodically gets updates from one or more servers. The default Time zone is based on the location of your IP address. If you travel frequently from one country to another, it is advised to either use Windows additional clock setting or change the time zone according to location.
Go to the Internet tim e tab. Here, you will see the time synchronization settings. It displays the information about the last time synchronization and when the next resync will happen.
To change the current time server, click on Change settings button. In the screenshot below, the computer is set to automatically synchronize with time. I applied this setting before writing the article. In your computer, the current time server should be time. Here you can choose the server. Click on drop down and the list of servers will appear.

The default value for domain controllers is MaxPosPhaseCorrection All versions Specifies the largest positive time correction in seconds that the service makes. MinPollInterval All versions Specifies the smallest interval, in log base 2 seconds, allowed for the system polling interval.
Note that while a system does not request samples more frequently than this, a provider can produce samples at times other than the scheduled interval. The default value for domain controllers is 6. PhaseCorrectRate All versions Controls the rate at which the phase error is corrected. Specifying a small value corrects the phase error quickly, but might cause the clock to become unstable. If the value is too large, it takes a longer time to correct the phase error.
The default value on domain members is 1. The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is 7. Note Zero is not a valid value for the PhaseCorrectRate registry entry. PollAdjustFactor All versions Controls the decision to increase or decrease the poll interval for the system. The larger the value, the smaller the amount of error that causes the poll interval to be decreased.
RequireSecureTimeSyncRequests Windows 8 and later versions Controls whether or not the DC will respond to time sync requests that use older authentication protocols. If enabled set to 1 , the DC will not respond to requests using such protocols. This is a boolean setting, and the default value is 0. SpikeWatchPeriod All versions Specifies the amount of time that a suspicious offset must persist before it is accepted as correct in seconds.
The default value on stand-alone clients and workstations is TimeJumpAuditOffset All versions An unsigned integer that indicates the time jump audit threshold, in seconds. If the time service adjusts the local clock by setting the clock directly, and the time correction is more than this value, then the time service logs an audit event.
UpdateInterval All versions Specifies the number of clock ticks between phase correction adjustments. The default value for domain members is 30, The default value for stand-alone clients and servers is , Note Zero is not a valid value for the UpdateInterval registry entry.
The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is 1. The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is 0x1. The NtpServer is a time server that responds to client time requests on the network by returning time samples that are useful for synchronizing the local clock. LargeSampleSkew All versions Specifies the large sample skew for logging, in seconds. Events will be logged for this setting only when EventLogFlags is explicitly configured for 0x2 large sample skew.
The default value on domain members is 3. The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is 3. ResolvePeerBackOffMaxTimes All versions Specifies the maximum number of times to double the wait interval when repeated attempts to locate a peer to synchronize with fail.
A value of zero means that the wait interval is always the minimum. The default value on domain members is 7. ResolvePeerBackoffMinutes All versions Specifies the initial interval to wait, in minutes, before attempting to locate a peer to synchronize with. SpecialPollInterval All versions Specifies the special poll interval, in seconds, for manual peers.
When the SpecialInterval 0x1 flag is enabled, W32Time uses this poll interval instead of a poll interval determined by the operating system. The default value on domain members is 3, The default value on stand-alone clients and servers is , It contains reserved data that is used by the Windows operating system.
It specifies the time, in seconds, before W32Time will resynchronize after the computer has restarted. Any changes to this setting can cause unpredictable results. The default value on both domain members and on stand-alone clients and servers is left blank. The following registry entries are not a part of the W32Time default configuration but can be added to the registry to obtain enhanced logging capabilities.
By default, the Windows Time service logs an event every time that it switches to a new time source. These are the global Group Policy settings and default values for the Windows Time service.

Please rate your experience Yes No. Any additional feedback? Caution Don't use the Net time command to configure or set a computer's clock time when the Windows Time service is running. Note If you have a computer with multiple network adapters is multi-homed , you cannot enable the Windows Time service based on a network adapter.
Important Windows Server has improved the time synchronization algorithms to align with RFC specifications. Note In this case, if you want to set the clock back slowly, you would also have to adjust the values of PhaseCorrectRate or UpdateInterval in the registry to make sure that the equation result is TRUE. Note When you remove a Group Policy setting, Windows removes the corresponding entry from the policy area of the registry. Warning This information is provided as a reference for use in troubleshooting and validation.
Note Some of the parameters in the registry are measured in clock ticks and some are measured in seconds. Ticks Property. Submit and view feedback for This product This page. View all page feedback.
