How Does the Network Time Protocol Work?
(This isn’t Marzullo’s algorithm. That’s only used by the high-stratum servers to get really accurate time using several sources. This is how an ordinary client gets the time, using only one server) First of all, NTP timestamps are stored as seconds since January 1, 1900. 32 bits for the number of seconds, and 32 bits … Read more

Is Android using NTP to sync time?
I know about Android ICS that it uses a custom service called: NetworkTimeUpdateService. This service also implements a NTP time synchronization via the NtpTrustedTime singleton.

Time synch with your docker container cannot be resolved by running your container with -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro Instead, for now, you have to periodically run this on … Read more
