win_ntp module required to configure NTP #114
Comments
|
Since there are so many additional settings besides just the name or address of an NTP server, I would imagine that if there were to be such a module, it would allow configuration of all pertinent NTP settings: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/windows-time-service/windows-time-service-tools-and-settings#reference-windows-time-service-registry-entries. I currently achieve this will a role containing a dozen or so plays using win_regedit; this allows it to be idempotent and only restarts the service if there is a change to this (or any of the other) keys.

If no specific NTP module then I will prefer to use the win_shell module where its simple to implement and can add multiple entries easily. Using minimal use of win_regedit is good. |
SUMMARY
Currently there is no ntp module to configure NTP client. Its good to have a win_ntp module that can take multiple NTP server IP/FQDN and configure in the windows system.

win_ntp
for ntp configuration.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
