Vista with SP1. There are 4 or 5 clocks that you are able to sync with
but I keep getting an error on each of them. Anybody else have problems
with syncing up their clocks?

Thanks

Do you have a router with a firewall?

You need to open port 123 for UDP in order to communicate with the
servers. If you have checked this then maybe you have a security package
installed that is stopping you.

Hi Wolverine,

This tutorial may be able to help you get you Internet Time to synch.
Check the Warning at the top of the tutorial to make sure that these are
not part of the problem. Plus, you might type in a different time server
in step 10B to see if one of those will work for you instead.
