How can I synchronize my clock over network with timeserver?
Install ntp package. Refer to:
http://www.ntp.org/
for configuration instructions.
I'm working on an iBook and use it mostly as my desktop PC. So I removed
my battery.
Now for me is every day the 1.1.1970. Just like the movie Groundhog
Day.
The ntpd will not run with such a big time difference. Use ntpdate for
that. I think the ntpd start up script will run it for you if you put an
ntp server in the file /etc/ntp/step-tickers .
How, in the same way I done this in ntp.conf?
The file has an abnormal file-format, PCX ?
The script is /etc/init.d/ntpd - you can run it manually as root after
you created the file /etc/ntp/step-tickers:
/etc/init.d/ntpd start
or just reboot (:
(If ntpd is configured to run but the time is way off you should see it
complaining in /var/log/syslog ...)
