Stop Ubuntu From Automatically Updating the Time
- by Yar
I just need to set the date temporarily. I run this
date 051918002010.00
and it sticks for just 5 seconds or so. Then it syncs with the time server. I have tried:
ps aux | grep ntp
but there is nothing there.
I need a correct answer now, more than a more detailed answer later :)
Edit: As answerers quickly discovered, my Ubuntu is running in a VirtualBox, which turned out to be relevant for some versions of the answer. Thanks to everybody.
