Thanks Tornado. Can you suggest me any freeware NTP Server package for Windows 2000/2003 which is more reliable to use in my production environment. I am using different models of systems running with different OS versions & also running with veritas cluster. Let me give you a brief idea of my setup;
1. Windows 2000/2003 server --- Want to use as NTP Server
2. 2 x Solaris 10 Systems (ppip1n & ppip2n) running with VCS 4.1. These 2 Servers are pointing to SMC Server running on Solaris 9 to take the date & time.
Note : I want SMC server to point the Windows NTP server to sync the date & time. pp1n & pp2n will sync the date & time from SMC server.
Please find the ntp.conf configuration from ppip1n, ppip2n & SMC systems;
ntp.conf of ppip1n

Can you tell me the configuration is proper on ppip1n, ppip2n & SMC systems...???
What exactly is the stratum value & how it affects your configuration...???
