Here is how I do it.
I use the standard domain structure and have the PDC emulator sync to a good
outside source. But the one thing I added was a scheduled task on every server
that runs twice a day to stop and start the time service. That has helped
dramatically, I can't remember the last
Do a domain account as you describe and set the account to expire tomorrow.
When they need it you re-enable it and set it to expire again the next day.
Still manual intervention on your part but the automatic expire solves the

How about you create an AD Group, nest the AD group in local admins, and add
the relevant users? GPOs and extra accounts for a dev box like this sounds like
substantial unnecessary overhead.

Hmm, could be your VM host has the wrong time, and is jamming that bad

and, provided w32tm is set up properly, you may find everything is

Also it wouldn't hurt to make sure the host has a solid time
configuration, as

The drift is to far.
