A prerequisite to having the correct time on the Windows clients, we must have a correct time on the Windows 2016 server. So the first step is to sync server time with pool.ntp.org. Type the following commands on PowerShell:
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:pool.ntp.org /syncfromflags:MANUAL
Then apply the changes, this is done by restarting the time service. First, we stop the service and then we start it again.
Stop-Service w32time
Start-Service w32time
Now the Windows Server 2016 is an NTP client of pool.ntp.org and its time/clock is synced with the NTP pool servers (The server is at the same time the NTP server for other domain client systems).
If your Windows Server 2016 machine is a VM inside Hyper-V, you have to disable time sync. Go to:
M settings-> Management-> Integration Services
and uncheck:
Time Synchronization.
Otherwise, Windows Server 2016 time/clock will be synced with the Host time/clock.
Then go to the client machines and run the following command on PowerShell to force them to sync their time/clock with the domain controller on the Windows Server 2016.
w32tm /resync
You can check the time synchronization status using the following command.
w32tm /query /status
