AADS Shows a health warning but when you hit refresh the errors go away but my users cant sign in to AADS joined Virtual machines as it complains the username or password is wrong due it clearly not syncing correctly. how can i resove ? for clarity I've tried the following:

Stop and start AD Sync Services

Force a full Initial policy Sync

Sync Connector upgraded to latest release

Forced another intial sync

Manually changed password in 365 to update password hash

rebuilt VM's and domain joined them again.

still problem persists and i really dont want to have to delete my AADS domain and start again as that is alot of leg work.

I should add this has and was working historically and no changes had been made to the environment.

thanks

    It sounds like AADS is out of sync despite successful sync indicators. Try restarting the AADS domain controllers, check Azure AD Connect sync status and event logs for errors, and ensure time sync (NTP) is correct across all systems. Also, verify account lockout policies and replication health.
