systemd-timesyncd
is a daemon that has been added for synchronizing the system clock across the network. The
systemd-timesyncd
daemon implements: - Implements an SNTP client - Runs with minimal privileges - Saves the current clock to disk every time a new NTP sync has been acquired - Is hooked up with networkd to only operate when network connectivity is available Add or edit server or pool lines to
/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
as appropriate:
server <remote-server>
Multiple servers may be configured.
