Hello Ricardo,
Use the following;
step.1) <crontab -e>
step.2) addline
30 * * * * root ntpdate ntp1.hut.fi
step.3) Save
Step.4) Now the cron automatically runs the command ntdpate every 30
minutes and you will be at least something closer to realtime. =) You
may want to find some ntp server from your own country. Or see what time
your system shows now? =) The preliminary setups also affect this.
Yours Sincerely,
Matti Niinikoski
