please check that other box and see if it has systemd-timesyncd.service
on it.
You can probably start that service up and solve that problem.
Then try timedatectl set-ntp true.
That should make timesync happen on boot.

Hi,
I have a weird issue with one of my debian boxes (LMDE): I can not set the
time. The time is off by ca. 14 min and whatever I try to fix it is failing. I
tried ntp, ntpdate, date and rdate. Nothing helps.
ntpdate shows the offset but is not fixing it.
91# ntpdate 0.debian.pool.ntp.org
4 Feb 14:03:55 ntpdate[8159]: step time server 85.114.132.52 offset -855.296824
sec
rdate is showing some interesting behaviour. If I run a command like "date && rdate -v
ptbtime1.ptb.de && date" to see the time before and after rdate, the output suggests that
rdate was successful:
81# date && rdate -v ptbtime1.ptb.de && date
Sat Feb 4 14:16:04 CET 2017
Sat Feb 4 14:01:49 CET 2017
rdate: adjust local clock by -855 seconds
Sat Feb 4 14:01:49 CET 2017
But in fact 1 second later the time is back to old values again:
82# date
Sat Feb 4 14:16:06 CET 2017
timedatectl is showing wrong time as well:
93# timedatectl
Local time: Sat 2017-02-04 14:20:39 CET
Universal time: Sat 2017-02-04 13:20:39 UTC
RTC time: Sat 2017-02-04 13:20:39
Time zone: Europe/Berlin (CET, +0100)
But is should be:
Local time: Sa 2017-02-04 14:06:25 CET
Universal time: Sa 2017-02-04 13:06:25 UTC
RTC time: Sa 2017-02-04 13:06:25
Time zone: Europe/Berlin (CET, +0100)
I am lost.
