Automatically update date/time

From Andreida

This is not needed anymore, any current Debian installation will do it correctly. I keep this around because sometimes certain virtual machines have problems after SLEEP to get the correct date.


Debian can automatically update its date/time:

  • check the currente date/time
date
  • install the service
apt-get install systemd-timesyncd
  • enable it
timedatectl set-ntp true
  • check the currente date/time
date
