To force the server and DC to resynchronize the time, go to the command prompt and execute one of the following sets of commands:

- net stop w32time
net start w32time
- w32tm -s (/resync in Microsoft .NET)

If the server is the forest root DC, you'll need to configure it to synchronize the time with an external source

Time Servers (For your pdc or time server)

Microsoft's Web site also provides information about local time servers for other global locations.

To set an authoritative time server, type the following command at the command prompt:

net time /setsntp:ntp0.uk.uu.net

where ntp0.uk.uu.net is an example of an SNTP time server. Time synchronization uses UDP port 123, so if you use a firewall, this port
must be open.

All of this should resolve the 2nd issue.
