An alternative is, to use systemd-timesyncd.service, which is already shipped in the systemd package, but disabled by default. It's more lightweight then ntp and doesn't do all the fancy tricks ntp does. It also doesn't provide an NTP server. For most users timesyncd should be sufficient, so you can just run $ systemctl enable systemd-timesyncd.service $ systemctl start systemd-timesyncd.service -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
