Yes. You actually need to do that. As long as ntp is installed, systemd-timesyncd won't start. The assumption here is, that if the admin explicitly installed ntp, it should be preferred of systemd-timesyncd. See # /lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service.d/disable-with-time-daemon.conf [Unit] # don't run timesyncd if we have another NTP daemon installed ConditionFileIsExecutable=!/usr/sbin/ntpd ConditionFileIsExecutable=!/usr/sbin/openntpd ConditionFileIsExecutable=!/usr/sbin/chronyd -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
