I'm not sure why it's showing that in the Sys event log, it must be an older event
It was in the last 60 minutes prior to dcdiag
The computer time is correct
still wouldn't hurt to check
w32tm /query /source
w32tm /query /configuration

Over the past year or so, one of our clients directories has been having some serious Active Directory Synchronisation issues. In the current state, the Active Directory Domain Controller cannot view itself as the PDC, even though the _msdcs Forward Lookup Zone is configured correctly and all FSMO roles have been seized.

This is a virtual machine hosted in VMWare, when trying to promote another domain controller to this domain I get an error in the Server Manager wizard informing me that a Domain Controller cannot be found in this domain.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am at my wits end here.

The computer time is correct

w32tm /query /source
w32tm /query /configuration
Also check the time service configuration is correct. For PDCe
w32tm /unregister
net stop w32time
w32tm /register
net start w32time
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:<ntp ip address> /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
net stop w32time
net start w32time
then check
w32tm /query /source
w32tm /query /configuration
Also add the server's own static ip address (192.168.20.51) plus loopback (127.0.0.1) listed for DNS then do ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /registerdns, restart the netlogon service.
If no joy then please run;
Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >C:\dcdiag.log
repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt
ipconfig /all > C:\dc1.txt
ipconfig /all > C:\dc2.txt
ipconfig /all > C:\dc3.txt
then put unzipped
text files up on OneDrive and share a link.
