Let me hazard a guess that chrony is not a full implementation
Chrony provides complete time service. Ntpd does do things that Chrony
doesn't but they are things like supporting atomic clock hardware and
providing obscure encryption schemes.

No. Chrony is an independent implementation of the NTP protocol.

Thanks for the advice.

If you install ntp-simple it will start a daemon that will
periodically poll the time servers and gently keep your clock in
sync. (If you're five seconds off, that time will be made up
gradually, rather than abruptly shifting the clock.) No need to set

The first place to look for time servers is your ISP. ISPs often run
time service on their nameservers. Try them.

Gotcha. I saw the .es and, well, you can guess. But you still shouldn't

Don't _ask_ your ISP about timeservers: their first line support is just
about guaranteed to be clueless. Just stick the nameserver IP numbers in
the Chrony or Ntp config file and try them.

Can someone summarize the different ntp packages?
For example what to run on a server vs. on an internal NAT'ed
workstation.
Or what is best for a dialup ADSL connection vs. full-time connection.
Do all packages provied a daemon?

So my first question is, what is debian's equivalent to clock. All
it did, with the -w option, was to set the hardware clock from the
