The server is set via a configuration file. The default config file is /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf and it can be overridden by dropping files in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.d/. There is a pool of free ntp servers available on https://www.ntppool.org/en/.
To test this fix you also need a DHCP server that returns NTP records. With VMs, you can use dnsmasq to provide NTP records by changing the values in dnsmasq.conf # Set the NTP time server addresses to 192.168.0.4 and 10.10.0.5 #dhcp-option=option:ntp-server,192.168.0.4,10.10.0.5 Or if you're using libvirt, edit the configuration with "virsh net-edit default" (or the name of the network your VMs are attached to) then pass the option directly to dnsmasq (cf https://libvirt.org/formatnetwork.html for reference) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1933828 Title: NTP servers from DHCP are not propagated to timesyncd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1933828/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
