Configure NTP

In some countries, NTP is a legal requirement. By default, Wanos is not configured with NTP servers but the administrator can configure it by using the following steps.

  • Log into your Wanos Appliance via SSH.
  • Enter the code below:
    vi /etc/tce/wanos/wanos.conf
    
  • Look for NTPD_SERVER=, type A or I to start editing and add your preferred NTP server.
  • To save your settings, do the following:
    Hit the ESC key to exit edit mode then type:
    :wq! to save.
    


    NTP automatically synchronizes every 2am everyday via crontab.

    To manually synchronize time and date to NTP servers, run the command:

    sudo ntpd -p <NTP Server>
    

    e.g. sudo ntpd -p pool.ntp.org
