track down why Internet Time wasn't working on all of my XP or Vista boxes.Despite the Internet Time synch tab being there out of the box on the system clock, there is a manual step needed to enable it. The Windows w32tm register the specified service marked for deletion Time service needed to back it up isn't registered by default (check the Administrative Tools w32tm 0x800706ba service applet). So, at a DOS prompt, enterw32tm /registerThen in the Administrative Tools service applet manually start the Windows Time service.Then and only

then will the Update Now button work.Addendum 12-Mar-12Searching for other mentions of the service registration, there appear to be some problem reports where the service is registered, but the time synch still fails. This is not a problem I http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-performance/rpc-server-unavailable-in-time-date-autosinc/4a2e380b-18de-4829-9644-f38b2a809e81 personally have ever seen, but in those articles, the fix reported in these cases isw32tm /unregister w32tm /unregister w32tm /registerwhere you have to ignore the errors from both the first two commands to de-register the service.

Troubleshooting "RPC Server Unavailable" Errors This article will provide information on troubleshooting an "RPC server unavailable" error in Windows "The RPC server is unavailable" is a fairly common error in Windows that can occur in a wide variety of situations, most of them involving communication between two machines across a network. It can also occur during local operations on a machine, however. For clarity, in this article, the machine initiating RPC communication will be designated the client, and the machine with which it communicates will be the server. Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a mechanism that allows Windows processes to communicate with one another, either between a client and server across a network or within a single system. Numerous built-in Windows components utilize RPC. RPC uses dynamic ports for communication between systems, but a static port (TCP port 135) must also be used as a starting point for communication. The RPC endpoint mapper listens on this static port. In a typical RPC session, a client contacts a server's endpoint mapper on TCP port 135 and requests the dynamic port number assigned to a particular service. The server responds with the IP address and port number that the service registered with RPC when it started, and the client then contacts the service on that IP address and port. Possible causes of the "RPC server unavailable" error include the following: Stopped RPC service: If the RPC service on the server isn't running, the client obviously won't be able to reach it. Name resolution issues: The RPC server's name may be resolving to the wrong IP address, resulting in the client contacting the wrong server or attempting to contact an IP address not currently in use. Alternatively, the server's name may not be resolving at all. Traffic blocked by firewall: A firewall or other security application on the server, or a network firewall appliance between the client and
