Hi there! Welcome to my blog. My name is Ivan. I am a Dutch IT Professional working as Principal IT Consultant. If you are experiencing replication problems between your domain controllers, then there is a quick and dirty way to force the NDTS topology updates. Usually I encounter those problems when I move DC’s between different locations in my test environment.
Start “Active Directory Sites and Services” console, locate the site and domain controller, open NTDS settings and remove all connection links.
Start “Command Prompt” and execute repadmin /kcc (Forces the KCC to recalculate replication topology for a specified domain controller. By default this recalculation occurs every 15 minutes.)
Wait for a while and check the replication between your domain controllers.

ISSUES WITH WINDOWS TIME SYNCHRONIZATION ACCROSS VARIOUS SITES
Hi,
I would like to know if there is any free tool / application to sync time with AD server across various sites (Additional DC SERVERS/CLIENTS) – Additional DC's are in Hyper- V and the base machine that holds the Hyper -V machine is made to sync time from ADC inside them. A group policy forces AD time on all clients .
Time synchronizaton inside Hyper-V's had been disabled but still there is time synchronization issues. Manually running W32tm/resync and its variants to sync with main DC solves the issue for a while but it reappears now and then again.
Kindly suggest any and all alternative measures to combat this issue.
