How about (waves hands vaguely) determine whether NTP is present and
working, and, if so, change the label to "Synchronization in progress
..." or some such? Then it makes sense for the button to be greyed out.

Couldn't the "sync now" button do just what brianhanna suggested? That is, stop
ntpd, run ntpdate and start ntpd again?
What server does ntpdate use to sync on?

I was just noticed this problem on my Gutsy system. I think the
answer's here already but not entirely intuitive. To do a sync "now",
you have to go to "manual" mode and hit "synchronize now". I saw my
time change when i did that. Then you can go back to "keep
synchronized" mode if you want.

I have another case where a "synchronize now" button should be available:
When running Ubuntu in VMWare, suspending the VMWare session and then resuming
it at a later time, the clock is stuck at the time you suspended it. So even
though I'm using ntpd to keep the clock in synch, I also want to be
After just installing Feisty, I ran into this exact same problem. I
puzzled over it for quite a bit without figuring out what exactly was
expected of me. After reading the comments here, I am still very
confused. Hopefully this can be sorted out somehow.

@schmirrwurst:
yes, this is why I suggested looking at the other bug. I do not see an
immediate, simple solution here. Of course, NTP's approach to correcting
the clock seems sensible and good, but some users want the clock
corrected NOW, and this approach (I mean NTP's) may simply not do the

Ok, but there are always some issues :
ntp is installed by default on ubuntu, so is also for network-manager.
If I've understood, it means that every user that won't start with network will
have this problem. I think there is need to find a better solution, because I
don't believe new users are

this, then, looks like a duplicate of bug 90267. Please have a look at
the comments there.
A quick summary:
1. if ntp is started before network interfaces are active, then it will
not work until restarted.
2. if ntp is running then ntpdate will not run (working as designed)
3. If network-manage
The Problem is also that ntp is only synchronizing at startup by me, if
I have no connection on startup, then it is not synchronizing at all...
When seting up the clock to sync with servers, the applet is modifying
the ntpd.conf, it should also configure it to sync once an hour or
something like t
the GNOME tool also has a "synchronize now"

I believe the "update now" button exists on both Windows and OSX and it
is used quite regularly...

Hi,

ntpdate will decline to set the date if an NTP server daemon (e.g.,

My problem is that when I switched the NTP, the time did NOT
synchronized immediately. For at least 5 minutes I was getting the wrong
time still. You have to either enable that button, OR, make it
synchronize immediately after the user changes to NTP mode.

Thank you for your bug report. I can reproduce this here, and it is not
expected behaviour.
