# This the default chrony.conf file for the Debian chrony package. After # editing this file use the command 'invoke-rc.d chrony restart' to make # your changes take effect. John Hasler 1998-2008 # See www.pool.ntp.org for an explanation of these servers. Please # consider joining the project if possible. If you can't or don't want to # use these servers I suggest that you try your ISP's nameservers. We mark # the servers 'offline' so that chronyd won't try to connect when the link # is down. Scripts in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d and /etc/ppp/ip-down.d use chronyc # commands to switch it on when a dialup link comes up and off when it goes # down. Code in /etc/init.d/chrony attempts to determine whether or not # the link is up at boot time and set the online status accordingly. If # you have an always-on connection such as cable omit the 'offline' # directive and chronyd will default to online. # # Note that if Chrony tries to go "online" and dns lookup of the servers # fails they will be discarded. Thus under some circumstances it is # better to use IP numbers than host names. {% for ntp_server in ntp_servers %} server {{ ntp_server }} offline minpoll 8 {% endfor %} # Look here for the admin password needed for chronyc.
