Change the Windows Time Service Configuration on the PDC Emulator in the Forest Root Domain The domain controller in the forest root domain that holds the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator operations master (also known as flexible single master operations or FSMO) role is the default time source for the domain hierarchy of time sources in the forest.

Windows Time Service Tools and Settings
Most domain member computers have a time client type of NT5DS, which means that they synchronize time from the domain hierarchy. The only typical exception to this is the domain controller that functions as the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator operations master of the forest root domain, which is usually configured to synchronize time with an external time source.
W32tm.exe is used to configure Windows Time service settings. It can also be used to diagnose problems with the time service. W32tm.exe is the preferred command line tool for configuring, monitoring, or troubleshooting the Windows Time service.
