If the NTP client can't sync to the external source it may mark itself as synced to the local clock. It may cause the discrepancy you're seeing in the CCM web page.<br><br>Syncing to a reliable external source is extremely important. I've seen instances where a CCM server was synced to two different sources with varying times (and one marked as stratum 1), and it caused critical service crashes as the clock was constantly resetting on the CCM server.<br>
<br><a href="http://pool.ntp.org">pool.ntp.org</a>, or the local equivalent for your area is something I would deem reliable.<br><br><a href="http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/WebHome">http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/WebHome</a><br>

Those commands show different then whats in the web page. The pub has<br>
not synced on CLI but web page has synced.<br>
<br>
The other odd thing is when I restarted NTP it just sat there. I also<br>
deleted the NTP server via GUI and re-added it and no change.<br>
<br>
I think the issue is what another person posted recently about using a<br>
Win2003 server so going to follow what was done for that which was<br>
using <a href="http://pool.ntp.org" target="_blank">pool.ntp.org</a>.<br>
