"timedatectl" is a command for configuring and showing various time settings. You probably mean: how to stop Systemd's NTP service. See "man timedatectl" or "timedatectl -h". Look for subcommand "set-ntp". sudo timedatectl set-ntp false See the current state with just "timedatectl" command. What happens behind the surface is enabling/disabling service systemd-timesyncd.service. You can check its status: systemctl status systemd-timesyncd.service -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. https://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 6965F03973F0D4CA22B9410F0F2CAE0E07608462
