It will do that too. The crucial item there is "the only method of time correction is manual entry" which is different from ntpd and orphan mode. I have no idea why this conversation is continuing. The two are different. The two methods are trying to solve the same problem (timekeeping of isolated systems) but doing so in a different manner. If you like one better than the other, that is fine. But they are not the same.
Bill, please enlighten me why I cannot, using NTP's orphan mode, set the time on one PC manually and have another PC sync to it?
If you are saying that Chrony cannot work on isolated networks /without/ using manual time entry, I would consider that a significant disadvantage. I'm sure that isn't the case.
I thought I might learn something about orphan mode from the discussion, as it's not something I have used or had the need for here.
