how to restart ntp in slackware 15
by JinxsDad from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6FT9Y)
How do I restart the ntp service? I read that you can use any of the following:
/etc/init.d/ntp restart
OR
service ntp restart
OR
systemctl restart ntp
Just three problems: 1) /etc/init.d is empty; 2) After an su -, there is no service command; also no systemctl command.
I just did a full reinstall last night after some network or other issue blocked booting into normal mode. Again, that's a full install. I even installed KDE even though I never use it (that I know of).
I need to get ntp running on real ntp servers, because my clock thinks it's 1328 when it's actually 2006 and the "ntp server" it's been using is localhost.
Thanks
