NAME

       chrony.conf - chronyd configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/chrony/chrony.conf

DESCRIPTION

       chrony is a pair of programs for maintaining the accuracy of computer clocks. chronyd is a
       background daemon program that can be started at boot time.

       Assuming that you have found some servers, you need to set up a configuration file to  run
       chrony.   The  (compiled-in)  default  location  for this file is /etc/chrony/chrony.conf.
       Assuming that your ntp servers are called `a.b.c' and `d.e.f', your chrony.conf file could
       contain as a minimum

            server a.b.c
            server d.e.f
            server g.h.i

       However,  you  will  probably  want  to  include some of the other directives described in
       detail in the documentation supplied with the distribution (chrony.txt  and  chrony.texi).
       The  following  directives  will  be  particularly  useful  :  `driftfile',  `commandkey',
       `keyfile'.  The smallest useful configuration file would look something like

            server a.b.c
            server d.e.f
            server g.h.i
            keyfile /etc/chrony/chrony.keys
            commandkey 1
            driftfile /var/lib/chrony/drift
