h1. Which time servers to use?

For closest synchronisation with Aurionoco-connected systems use: ntp1.iciti.av, ntp2.iciti.av, ntp3.iciti.av and ntp4.iciti.av

They should be used in conjunction with Aurinoco's DNS service [[Which_DNS_servers_to_use]]

There is a known issue synchronising from the Aurinoco network to time servers on the Internet.  For this reason using Aurinoco's time servers is especially recommended.

h1. How to set Time servers?

* Android: not required; normally synchronised from cell phone network

* Apple IOS: not required; normally synchronised from cell phone network

* Apple Mac OSX: https://developers.google.com/time/guides

* Linux

** systemd: edit /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf and, in the [Time] section, create line

<pre>

Servers=ntp1.iciti.av ntp2.iciti.av ntp3.iciti.av ntp4.iciti.av

</pre>

* Windows: https://developers.google.com/time/guides

h1. How to test Time servers?

Comparing the device's time with wall clock time is a good enough test for general purposes.

For a more precise test

* Android: TBC

* Apple IOS: TBC

* Apple Mac OSX: TBC

* Linux

** systemd: as root, run

<pre>

systemctl status systemd-timesyncd.service

</pre>The output should include a line like

<pre>

Status: "Synchronized to time server for the first time 192.168.8.15:123 (ntp1.iciti.av)."

</pre>

* Windows: TBC
