Windows Server 2008 configures the time Server

Due to the work needs, I need to configure the time server in 2008. I found it on the Internet and successfully configured it. Please record:
First, WINDOWS SERVER 2008 turns off the NTP service by default and needs to be opened by changing the registry

The method is as follows:
Server:

By default, the standalone SERVER WINDOWS SERVER 2008 works as an NTP client, so the registry must be modified to run the system as an NTP SERVER. Please back up the registry file before working.

1. Change the key value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\TimeProviders\ Enabled in NtpServer to 1.

Turn on the NTP Server function (the default is not to turn on the NTP Server service, unless the computer is upgraded to a domain control station).

2. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Config\AnnounceFlags is set to 5.

This setting forces the host to declare itself a reliable time source, using a built-in CMOS clock. If you want to use an external time server, use the default a value.

3. Change the [Type] in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters\Type to NTP.

4. Restart Win32Time service: turn off Windows time service and then turn on the service. It can be completed under the "service" interface of the "management tool", or it can be entered as "net stop w32time" and "net start w32time" by DOS.

At this point, the server-side setup is complete. 8-)
