[Bug 1429620] Re: where is the ntpctl command?
Pardon my stupidity. ntpdate -q meets my need fine. So does downloading the time from any server that posts a continually updated value of "now". See: https://superuser.com/questions/635020/how-to-know-current-time-from-internet-from-command-line-in-linux So I have my work-around. It's still true, as far as I can see, that this bug is still unfixed in Trusty, but "ntpdate -q" is quite sufficient to put suspenders on my ntpd time traveler's navigation belt. ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1429620 Title: where is the ntpctl command?

[Bug 1429620] Re: where is the ntpctl command?
Mea culpa for redundant post. I entered it on a different page & didn't realize it would wind up here anyway. And 8 was correct, not 9. I'd at least edit it out, but I see no button for that. BTW, unless and until this is fixed, anybody got a workaround for querying to see how accurate the present time is without confusing openntpd? +- 5 seconds is good enough for me, probably even +- 30 seconds would be ok, but recently I've occasionally had times that were off considerably more than that. I THINK that is because I didn't have ANY ntpd-like thing installed, just ntpdate. So that problem is probably corrected now, but still I have some scripts where I log a time and I'd like to add a check to make sure I can count on some minimal level of accuracy at the time I log it.

"fix released" was 9 months ago and this still affects Trusty, which is LTS with 3 years to go. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1429620 Title: where is the ntpctl command?

"status:Confirmed → Fix Released" What's that mean exactly? It's 8 months since the preceding post and it isn't fixed in 14.04 LTS as of 2016 September 12. Is it going to be, or is Trusty abandoned, despite being LTS with 3 years to go before EOL? How soon is "soon"? Is it fixed in 16.04? I'll abandon Trusty as soon as I can get my Conky to work in 16.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1429620 Title: where is the ntpctl command?
