FindPDC.exe is a command line tool to find the PDC role holder of a domain.

Type findnbt /? for usage.

domain - The domain you want to find the PDC of.

count - The number of times you want the program to try to find the PDC. This tests whether the PDC is properly responding to the query directed at it asking if it is indeed the PDC. Very handy if you suspect your PDC is getting too busy.

Basic example.
