Date and time

A "Network Time Protocol Daemon" (nptd for short) can sync the system clock with internet standard time servers. The chrony daemon is used as ntpd. Install it by:

# xbps-install -Sy chrony

Then to active its service:

ln -s /etc/sv/chronyd /var/service

To configure the timezone edit the /etc/rc.conf file.

HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"

And symlink the correct timezone to /etc/localtime:

# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Amsterdam /etc/localtime
