Are you saying that both chrony and ntpsec, which are fully ntp 
client/server ack the docs are worthless to timedatectl?

I have a quite good 3d printer, but its running armbian buster, its out 
of synch by days despite ntpsec running and I can see it access my own 
level 2 server but the timedate never synchronizes. I need to know how 
to setup timedatectl to slam the ntp time into the system clock on first 
access at bootup. That would fix a lot of bogus times reported by 
fluidd, the printers web based gui front end.

Thanks Greg. Take care & stay well.

Cheers, Gene Heskett, CET.
