I have configured my XP workstation to sync with NTP server every 30minutes
(SepcialPollInterval) . The workstation only in WORKGROUP and without any
Domain Controller.

When I added the multiple NTP server entries with COMMA separate in between,
the time will be synchronize every 17 minutes. However, if I enter multiple
NTP server entries with SPACE in between, the time will be synchronize every
30minutes as I defined. This is followed Microsoft Article ID 223184.

However, I wish to know what is goes wrong with COMMA added in the entries
and caused the time synchronize every 17minutes? Anybody know answer?

Many thanks.

The registry entry doesn't accept commas and should only be a space between entries.

And congrgulations on finding a new way to synch time every 17 minutes.
