My VM on ESXi have all different dates. Here is how toset them the same.<\/p>\n

\"date\"<\/a><\/p>\n

First, you\u2019ll need to install NTP. For Debian or Ubuntu, that would be this command:<\/p>\n

\n\n# sudo apt-get install ntp\n\n<\/pre>\n
For Redhat or CentOS, you\u2019ll need to use this one:<\/p>\n
\n\n# yum install ntp\n\n<\/pre>\n
Then you\u2019ll want to edit the \/etc\/ntp.conf file, which is quite possibly already filled out for you.<\/p>\n
\n\n# nano \/etc\/ntp.conf\n\n<\/pre>\n
You can get a list of server addresses at www.pool.ntp.org. Here are the North America ones:<\/p>\n
\n\nserver 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org\nserver 1.north-america.pool.ntp.org\nserver 2.north-america.pool.ntp.org\nserver 3.north-america.pool.ntp.org\n\n<\/pre>\n
Set it to run at boot<\/p>\n
\n# chkconfig --list\nntpd            0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off\n<\/pre>\n
For Redhat and CentOS 6<\/p>\n
\nchkconfig ntpd on\n<\/pre>\n
\n# ntpd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off\n<\/pre>\n
For Redhat 7 and CentOS 7<\/p>\n
\n# systemctl enable ntpd.service\n<\/pre>\n
CentOS 6 restart or start the NTPD service:<\/p>\n
\n\n# \/etc\/init.d\/ntpd restart\n\n<\/pre>\n
CentOS 7 Restart<\/p>\n
\n# \/bin\/systemctl start  ntpd.service\n<\/pre>\n
If you want to update the time right now, you can stop the NTP service and then run the following command, swapping out your preferred server for pool.ntp.org.<\/p>\n
\n\n\/usr\/sbin\/ntpdate pool.ntp.org\n\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
