Description

Synchronizes system clocks using the development version of chrony. It is useful for laptops, servers, and networks that need accurate time without a heavier NTP setup.

Time services affect logs, certificates, authentication, builds, and distributed systems. Configure trusted time sources and avoid experimental builds on critical infrastructure unless you can monitor and roll back changes.

How to run

chronyd.service
