RE: setting the date for testing

Show all headers | View raw

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] - view raw

This did not work:

# timedatectl set-ntp true
Failed to set ntp: NTP not supported
# timedatectl set-ntp false
Failed to set ntp: NTP not supported

Other ideas?

I am trying to set the date manually so that I can test the system set at future dates.  Setting the system using the date command, it just resets itself back to the current date/time after a few seconds.  How can I stop this?

Thanks!

I am sorry for the typo. This should of course have been "false"!
