or if you prefer command line ...
This file will probably have the default Ubuntu server activated. You can check http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/europe or http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/north-america or http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/asia for local (country based) servers. Just comment out all of the servers by adding a
#
in front of it and add in the one you want to use.This will show a list of all the servers and when they where last checked. Random example from the web:
Do make sure, if you are using a firewall, to open UDP 123.
