SNTP service

Dear All, I see that it will be possible by the end of the year to activate a SNTP-service via the webpage to sync the time of the PLC. Is it already possible at this moment to synchronise the RTC with a SNTP server in the linux environment and how can we get it configured? Best regards, Stijn Noppe

Hello Stijn, I think this worked for me during the Early Adopter phase: Edit the file /etc/ntp.conf to add the ntp server(s) you want to use. In my case, the ntp servers are in Ireland: :

server 0.ie.pool.ntp.org
server 1.ie.pool.ntp.org
server 2.ie.pool.ntp.org
server 3.ie.pool.ntp.org
: I haven’t tried this recently so I’d be interested to know if this works for you. - Martin.

Hi Martin, After setting a DNS server such as 8.8.8.8 in the /etc/network/interfaces file, I got the SNTP settings that you specified up and running. Best regards, Stijn Noppe
