Advanced users • Re: Newbie questions regarding Chrony

Hi bls

...
pihole.toml config file has this entry:

Code:

 server = "" ### CHANGED, default = "pool.ntp.org"

Does this need changing to the localhost IP since chrony runs on it?

You definitely should point to a higher stratum ntp server. Not to your localhost. Correct time is becoming more critical. For example if you login into web sites that require 2FA using a authencator app, login will fail if your PC time is wrong.
