Hi,

I am using NESSUS software for network Security. The platform is WIndows 2003 server. NESSUS is scanning the network and providing results by showing various vulnerabilities. One such is as shown below:

An NTP (Network Time Protocol) server is listening on this port.

Anyone can provide solution to that

go into the server 2003 admin sections and turn off the NTP server.

all it does is provide an external time tick for your windows workstations to synchronize their system clocks to. it is not really a security issue.
