Hi,

recently I did a fresh install of my W2K3 R2. Shortly after that I
noticed that its clock is always 12 minutes fast. This does not vary,
it's always 12 minutes.

The server is set up to synchronize with ptbtime1.ptb.de, but if my
observation is right synchronization only takes place once a week.

From my early computer days I remember this might be a symptom of a
dying mainbord battery, although in this case I would expect varying
time offsets, not constant ones. Anyway, at the next opportunity I
will replace the battery.

In the meantime, I'd like to know:

1. Are there other reasons possibly causing this?

2. How can I change the synchronization interval, from once a week to
maybe once a day, or every 12 hours?

Thanks!
