Can someone tell mw how I might be able to remotely get when the last Time Synchronization took place on various servers? Is there some kind of tool that I can run in a batch file that will check several servers that will inform me of the last synchronization date/time and the time source that provided the time synchronization?

Thanks,

then you can use wmi to parse the system event log to discover the last time the system sychronized its clock. Generally though, you tell it when to synchronize so if you just look at each of the logs once in a while (which you should be doing anyway just to check for wierd SH*T) you can monitor that the event is happening when scheduled.

What I'm looking for is a way to record in the Event Logs the name of the Time Source that a server got its time from each time it does a synchronization (currently every hour). Once I get it to log I can read the System log using WMI to build a report that I have to submit on a monthly basis for several servers.

I sure hope that someone can help me with this. I'm tired of having to do this manually every month.

Thanks,
