ntp server could not work with windows

RouterOS Beginner Basics

dear all,

have you ever tried ntp server to work with windows client? i’m using mikrotik routerboard rb450g with routeros 3.30. i’ve set the ntp client to ntp.ubuntu.com and time.windows.com and it synchronized the mikrotik very well. i’ve also set ntp server by just enabling the enable only without any multicast, broadcast, and many cast.

i tried it on linux pc and it worked, but to no joy with windows pc. is there any work around on this to get the windows pc sync with mikrotik ntp server?

thanks in advance,

Hello,

I’ve the same problem. After the postinstall the mikrotik NTP-server ist running.
But I can’t syncronize with an windows 7 client with the mikrotik NTP-server. What options shut I use? Have any a idea?

Best regards
Daniel

I’ve resolve the problem.
If I’ve just disabled and enabled the ntp-client and now played ntp-server-syncronisation with windows 7. That’s all.

Hello,

after updating to version 6.35 of the NTP server does not work anymore. That means Windows clients can not synchronize time.

Is there a solution or a workaround for this problem ?

There are strange problems with the Windows NTP client. I have seen this problem in other environments
where a standard Linux NTP server is to provide time to Windows clients. Sometimes it just won’t work.
