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.
vi /etc/tce/wanos/wanos.conf
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
