Title:
[jaunty] Synchronizing with a time server does not work when time
difference is greater than several hours
Status in The Gnome System Tools:
Unknown
Status in “gnome-system-tools” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “ntp” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
After a fresh Gutsy install, I told the Date and Time applet to keep
synchronized with time servers. It had been an hour off, so I expected
this to set the time right, but it did not. I switched back to manual
time, set the time correctly, and then switched back to the time
server option. The new manually set time stayed.
This tells me that synchronizing with the time server in fact does
nothing.
====================
Steps to reproduce in Jaunty:
run time-admin
set clock back a few hours
close
re-run time-admin
use "Synchronise with time server" option
close
Notice time does not update to the correct time
