Windows Server 2008 R2
just a few minutes back, the time on our DC changed to 6:05AM while our real time is actually 4PM!
i found this on the event logs:
Log Name: System Source: Microsoft-Windows-Time-Service Date: 1/12/2014 6:05:02 AM Event ID: 37 Task Category: None Level: Information Keywords: User: LOCAL SERVICE Computer: SERVER1.ACME.COM Description: The time provider NtpClient is currently receiving valid time data from time.windows.com (ntp.m|0x0|0.0.0.0:123->65.55.56.206:123).

for now, i have managed to correct it manually but why this happened? Should I change NTP servers?
Appreciate any help.
