Fix Time Sync Problems on Windows Domain

• Confirm outside time source is working
• Identify PDCe in root AD domain: logon to a root DC and run
  

  NETDOM QUERY PDC

• Logon PDCe and confirm no errors are returned when syncing:
  

  W32TM /SYNC

• Create a file with names of all DC's in root domain (except the PDCe) using the following command:
  

  NETDOM QUERY DC > ROOTLIST.TXT

Cleanup the file and run the following commands to reset the DC's to update time from the domain hierarchy and then sync time.

PSEXEC @ROOTLIST.TXT W32TM /CONFIG /SYNCFROMFLAGS:DOMHIER /UPDATE

PSEXEC @ROOTLIST.TXT W32TM /RESYNC /REDISCOVER

Confirm time synced:

W32TM /MONITOR

Create a file with the names of all the DC's in the subdomain and repeat the above for the subdomain.

Repeat for workstations.
