5 minutes lost after DST change

Somehow I lost 5 minutes after the DST time change; the hour is correct but the minutes are off. (Must be aliens...)  Honestly, it wasn't like this yesterday as I compared my Domain time setting with the NTP on my cell phone. 

Not that 5 minutes will make me or break me, it just bugs me, so I attempted to correct this on my Windows 2008 R2 DC by entering the following commands from an elevated command prompt:

1) Stopped the time service by entering:

  net stop w32time

2) Attempted to re-configure the NTP by entering: 

w32tm/config/syncfromflags:manual/manualpeerlist:time.nist.gov

However at this command I received a message that this was an unrecognized command

3) At this point I just restarted the service and adjusted the clock manually and force a resynchronization:

w32time /resync

Now 70% of the machines have resynched.  (I know it takes a few minutes to complete.)

Now the question is, why did the command at step 2 fail?  What am I typing in wrong?

Last note here.  I do have an inbound UDP port 123 open for this sync.
