Re: Change ntp (time sync) to another than ubuntu, how to ?. LM21 Cinn [SOLVED]

I have tested with just ntp.se (instead of sth1.ntp.se) and it worked.

Code: Select all

[Time]
NTP=ntp.se
#FallbackNTP=pool ntp.se 
So I delete the word "pool" in second row.

Code: Select all

[Time]
NTP=sth1.ntp.se
FallbackNTP=ntp.se
sth1.ntp.se has been my friend for at least 5 years :D

Change ntp (time sync) to another than ubuntu, how to ?. LM21 Cinn [SOLVED]

Can´t find the file to change ntp server (Ubuntu default) to a
more local one. (There is no ntp.conf - file)
There is a file "timesyncd.conf" in etc/systemd ,but don´t think
it's the right one - and if it is how to change it.

Re: Can't move / delete items from other hard drives

Do you have the newest updates and the newest kernel ?
If not , try that , and reboot the computer.
(Edit: Well, I think 5.4.0-91 is the newest.)

If no change -You can try mount your drives manually, in "disks" and click the "mounting-arrow" for each disk .
