The best approach is to setup NTP on the PDC Emulator role Forest Root DC to point to the two IP addresses by IP on the 2 US Naval Observatory time servers. It is possible to use an internal server but best to use the external ones, depending on the individual company.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Time Server for Forest Root PDC
How have people on this list configured their Forest Root PDC to synchronize the time service? Is it O.K. to use an internal time server on a firewall? Is it best to point to tick.usno.navy.mil or time.windows.com?
