Setting time with NTP/SNTP

ThinIT can set its time from a NTP/SNTP server. NetManager includes a NTP server by default. Windows domain controllers will also provide NTP services.

DHCP

ThinIT will honour DHCP option 42 which can be used to specify NTP servers. On NetManager this is shown as 42: Network Time Protocol servers (need to untick Filter options list in Custom Options to see it):

With Windows DHCP server this is 042: NTP Servers:

N.B. it is not option 004: Time server:
