for years, our computer clocks have been off. everytime i sat down for a 20 minute shot to try and get it working, it always failed. finally found a site that walked through the process and it finally works!
http://www.anotherurl.com/library/network_time.htm
snip:
Setting the time automatically is just so simple™. Run this ruin:
net time /setsntp:"ntp2a.mcc.ac.uk ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk"
Port 123 must be open
So how DO you know it's all working?
turn off the time service
net stop w32time
set the time out by 10 minutes
C:\>time
The current time is: 15:54:45.17
Enter the new time: 16:04
check it
C:\>time
The current time is: 16:04:43.35
Enter the new time:
type:
C:\>w32tm -once
.....
W32Time: *****SetSystemTime()*****
W32Time: END Line 1258
W32Time: Time was 06min 08.201s
W32Time: Time is 57min 08.431s
W32Time: Error 539770ms
W32Time: BEGIN:CheckLeapFlag
W32Time: END:Line 584
W32Time: BEGIN:ComputePostTimeData
W32Time: BEGIN:ComputeInterval
W32Time: END Line 2452
W32Time: BEGIN:ComputeSleepStuff
W32Time: Computed stagger is 0ms, bias is 0ms
W32Time: Time until next sync - 2699.960s
W32Time: END:Line 794
W32Time: END:Line 220
W32Time: END:Line 195
W32Time: BEGIN:TermTime
W32Time: TimeMMCleanup()
W32Time: BEGIN:FinishCleanup
W32Time: BEGIN:TsUpTheThread
W32Time: END Line 1385
W32Time: Time service stopped.
W32Time: END:Line 407
now check the time, and restart the service
C:\>time
The current time is: 15:58:39.37
Enter the new time:
C:\>net start w32time
The Windows Time service was started successfully.
Finally make sure the time service starts automatically.

xp machine not able to access w2k domain
this is a sporadic problem on our w2k domain.
i have a new xp laptop that can join the domain, login to the machine on the domain with access privileges, and ping the domain name. it cannot however access or ping any of the hosts no the network - even the domain controller.
following the script here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314861
trying:
nltest /dsgetdc:domain
works fine
trying:
nslookup server_name.child_of_root_domain.root_domain.com
fails
*** can't find server name for address 192...[dc ip]: non-existent domain
*** default servers are not available.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/200525
This error occurs when there is no PTR record for the name server's IP address. When Nslookup.exe starts, it does a reverse lookup to get the name of the default server. If no PTR data exists, this error message is returned. To correct make sure that a reverse lookup zone exists and contains PTR records for the name servers.
For additional information, see the following article or articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
172953 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/172953/EN-US/) How to Install and Configure Microsoft DNS Server
did this but still get the nslookup issue and still unable to ping anybody
trying:
ipconfig /registerdns
that worked finally!!!!

Drupal cron job setups on SiteGround
The purpose of this post is to save failed attempts at getting this working.
ATTEMPT 1a/1b
/usr/local/bin/php /home/username/public_html/cron.php
/usr/bin/php /home/username/public_html/cron.php
both result in this error:

OpenID for Drupal and .NET
Having serious doubts about the LDAP direction. Doing some research/play with openid found this guy who built a drupal module support for it:
http://jirwin.net/openid-5-2.tar.gz - it is not yet ready for drupal 5.
duh - i finally found it. its not listed among the modules for some reason:
http://drupal.org/project/openid
UPDATE system set status = 0 WHERE name = [module name];
.net
http://cs.nerdbank.net/blogs/jmpinline/archive/2007/01/09/Getting-OpenID-user-profile-information-using-JanRain_2700_s-.NET-assembly.aspx
http://lists.openidenabled.com/mailman/listinfo/dev What i like about openid (if i can actually get it working). is that it separates and solves a single very important problem and answers a primary question - who is this user? knowing that and not having to maintain separate user accounts and passwords and password retrievers, reseters, etc. etc. is a big deal. getting a unique id from every user is a big deal. its also a big deal to force someone to go create a secondary openid, which they won't likely do, but they would create a second id on our system.
What openID will not do for us is groups. we will need some process/mechanism to tell each drupal site or .net service what group someone is in, and therefore what access rights they have.
Also, openid seems like a good thing to put in exchange contacts web address field - urn:schemas:contacts:businesshomepage in order to CRU contact information in a self-service manner using webdav for exchange

Scratch - Shell Script Part 1
#!/bin/sh
set -e
# Version 0.6c, 2007-06-21
# - Updated 2007-06-21 by Eric Lannert (eric.lannert@gmail.com)
# - added openldap, openssl, and bdb
# - changed flow to package by package - I found the need to run in pieces and wanted
# to make it easier for future add-on's
# - added switch to choose whether to delete source directory as this prevents incremental installs
# and recovering from errors
# - NOTE - I do not know where oracle's ftp is for the bdb, so the script assumes you
# have downloaded via http and uploaded by hand
# - abstracted wget_source to a reusable function
# - added LD_LIBRARY_PATH, CPPFLAGS, and LDFLAGS to chk_prepare
# - Updated 2007-06-08 by Chris Shymanik (chris@chipsncheese.com)
# - Will backup and re-install any old php.ini's found (see notes in wiki about this).
# - Source file detection.
# - Allows cgi-bin to be installed in a sub-directory (EXTDIR)
# - Created steps as functions, for easier troubleshooting/modification.
# - Updated various packages and did some additional code cleanup.
# - OSSP mm (Shared Memory Allocation) and bzip2 packages added.
# - Changed which binary to use, based on the new location in PHP 5.2.3.
# - Updated 2007-01-15 by Charles Wiltgen (charles@wiltgen.net)
# - Make "nicer" to help keep it from getting killed by DreamHost
# - Make less verbose to keep signal-to-noise level high
# - Updated 2006-12-25 by Carl McDade (hiveminds.co.uk)
# - Allow memory limit and freetype

Active Directory User Account Provisioning
Since the Drupal ldap auth module does not support new account creation in Active Directory, I will need other options.

Drupal LDAP Integration - Extracting groups from W2K Domain Controller Active Directory
The current setup is not extracting group information for users.
Tried this, but it did not work. Also seems counterintuitive to put values in boxes where the checkbox was left unchecked.
http://drupal.org/node/80020
http://drupal.org/node/147824 lead me to this:
Attribute names (one per line): memberOf
Attribute holding group members: memberUid
Tried this, but it did not work. Also seems counterintuitive to put values in boxes where the checkbox was left unchecked.
http://drupal.org/node/80020
http://drupal.org/node/147824 lead me to this:
msg_r($groups);
Which shows my groups are coming back from AD, but not propagating into drupal groups.
http://drupal.org/node/136303
Explains that the function in ldapgroups.conf.php needed to be commented out. Otherwise, the only groups that would get propagated were hard-coded ones it found.
That worked!!!
Ok, in the ldap groups screen, i only needed to do three things. everything else is blank:
Groups are specified by LDAP attributes - Checked - yesAttribute names (one per line): memberOf
Attribute holding group members: memberUid
