Configuring SNTP Servers in Windows terminal
w32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:"time.cloudflare.com nts.netnod.se time.mikes.fi 0.pool.ntp.org 1.pool.ntp.org 2.pool.ntp.org 3.pool.ntp.org"
w32tm /resync
w32tm /query /peers
- The list is space separated NTP servers, while I think Windows uses SNTP instead of NTP.
/resync
may sync current time, but is also required for the GUI (Windows + I, Date & time) and following command to get aware of peers.- Shows where time is synced from and statistics.
- There is also
net time
to sync, I am unsure of the differences while that may be blocked while the second keeps working. It may also not show all the peers, just the primary one, whilew32tm
is more verbose and has all of them.
- There is also
Variations
Variations of the timeserver setting command to be kept at hand
Note: time.cloudflare.com
and nts.netnod.se
probably work everywhere and I am keeping the second at hand in hopes of
Windows implementing support for NTS. Additionally Sweden is a
neighbouring country and thus doesn’t seem too bad location for an NTP
server.

- https://www.ntppool.org/use.html
- Also mentions the syntax for multiple servers, but considering this Elisa list has so many servers I am only picking one pool address just in case the others somehow fail.

- this file might not exist without this post, while it doesn’t
mention multiple servers, uses
time.windows.com
and I am yet to actually touch NTP on Windows Server environment.
