On my current distribution the Beaglebone Black does not come with a working NTP installation
in order to set the time. Because the board doesnt have a battery backup, this means that we

need a way to set the time when the board is running. If you wish to set the time you could do it
on a once-off basis

When you boot the Beaglebone black, the time comes up as:

Which is quite some time ago! I noticed this because I did a git commit and in the github status it
said that I did the update 13 years ago!
To set the date once off you could use something like:
1 root@beaglebone:~# ntpdate -b -s -u pool.ntp.org
2 root@beaglebone:~# date

However, if you reboot your Beaglebone the time will be back to the good old year 2000. So, we
Next, we need to install the ntp software on the Beaglebone black so, at the command prompt (I
am using Angstrom here):
1 opkg update
2 opkg list|grep ntp
3 opkg install ntp
Next, find a NTP server that is close to your location. We need to do this to be good ntp citizens
as it is not good to use a NTP root server as they are already heavily loaded it is better to use
a NTP pool server that is close to your location in order to help with load balancing.
A Google search for my location ntp server ireland returns the website http://www.pool.ntp.org/
which you can search for your location. For Ireland I get:

Next you need to set your /etc/localtime file according to your timezone. If you go into the
directory /usr/share/zoneinfo you will see a lot of different timezone files, e.g.

So, I am going to use the London file back to the /etc directory:

1 root@beaglebone:/etc# rm localtime
2 root@beaglebone:/etc# ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/London /etc/localtime

copying the file is that you can see the timezone that was set when you ls:

Thanks, that is good news. I would still recommend that people edit
/etc/ntp.conf to set the servers to local ntp pools.
Dear Derek,
it worked straight forward, only the RTC synchronization went different
because it didnt worked the way above. Instead of
root@beaglebone:/lib/systemd/system#
I used
hwclock -w
And my RTC was set to the system time
Hello Dev,
are You sure? I just installed the image and it do not work.
Hi Derek
Thanks for writing this up!

First off, I think that the current BBB image still doesnt do this automatically, so Im not sure if
the previous comment is accurate. The only thing about the new BBB image is that linking is no
longer necessary but I see that you already removed that part of the tutorial.
Secondly, I noticed that although this change allows us to synch the OS clock with the ntpd pool,
our hwclock is left with a silly time which can be observed by typing: timedatectl (or hwclock)
What Id like to do is correct the hwclock so that we have it giving an accurate value should we
reboot without Internet connectivity. I think that I should create another systemd process that runs
when ntpdate.service is successful, which would simply be the command hwclock --systohc
but Im still trying to figure how to create that dependancy of processes with system.d
Anyway, I just wanted to write up the idea in case someone has good resources on this. Ill have
time to tinker with it tomorrow.
Louis
Thanks Louis,
Well spotted and described! I have found one solution and added it to the page
description. If you find a better solution, please let me know.
Thanks again,

Hi Derek,
Ah thats really easy the way you did it. I was complexifying it and thinking I needed
to make another systemd task that would watch for this one to finish. Simple adding another

ExecStart line the way you did is a lot easier and makes sense. If we were doing a completely
different not clock related task that depended on the clock, a separate service might be
appropriate.

Hi Derek,
and thanks a lot for your excellent blog posts on the Beagleboard Black! Its always a
lot of fun to read through them. One question popped to my mind: Is the BBB making actually use
of its onboard RTC so you can use the hwclock command?
Thanks for the tutorial however I am on the (currently) latest build 2013-06-06 and
when I run:
enable ntpd.service
I get:
-sh: enable: ntpd.service: not a shell builtin
I tried to see if ntpd was something I could install using opkg however no luck. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated. As silly as it seems my shiny new BBB is completely useless to
me until I can get the time to update at boot. Back to the Raspberry Pi until the next update.
pdfcrowd.com
Mark, even I had the same problem ntpd.service was not present in my board
too. I manuaaly created and modified it. Could you please tell me what the
solution could be to this problem?
Just a not on this old comment, you didnt type the whole command line. it is:
systemctl enable
not
enable
Wow! A lot more complex than I would have thought when I set out to get my BBB to
set its clock to nist. But it worked perfectly. Thanks Derek.

Hi Stephen,
Did you do the part where you modify the line to:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ntpd -q -g -x
Derek
It work great on my BBB when I use it on SSH. But I can not use it on the GUI mode
with external monitor and keyboard and mouse after I reboot. It seem hang, but I can
still use the SSH.
I have try the 5.27 and 6.6 image it both get hang on GUI.
Derek,
Thanks for these instructions, and the others.
I noticed that installing ntp also created an init file as /etc/init.d/ntpd. Does that not interfere with
the systemd installation?

Finally i know the resaon (i.e. there is no resaon !) the ntp standard linux
command does not work on Asus EeePc Xandros o.s. !Anyway, the hint
proposed works fine: thanks a lot.

Thanks for this guide. I was wondering since ntpdate -b -s -u pool.ntp.org updates
the time why that couldnt be set as a system service. At first it didnt work, but then I
configured systemd to restart the process if it fails. My /lib/systemd/system/ntpdate.service looks
like this:

Hi,
I have following the steps on a BBB running the latest image from Angstrom.
Everything looks ok, but the time does not update (connected via Ethernet to the web).
If I try to manually update the time using:
ntpdate pool.ntp.org
I get:
__libc_res-Nquery: Assertion hp != hp failed.
Which is not very helpful to me.
Using the following:
opkg update
opkg install ntpdate
opkg install ntp
confirms that ntp and ntpdate are both up to date.

Ive been having problems with my time not being set even after I followed your
instructions. I think it has to do with my wireless networking issues immediately after
booting. Im still working on getting my 5.8GHz wireless to be stable and consistent.
I happened to be looking into another problem and was thinking about putting something into the
cron jobs to happen and ran the command crontab -e while logged in as root. I was surprised to
see a command configured to be run every 30 minutes /usr/bin/ntpdate-sync so I looked at its
contents. If you put a list of ntpservers in /etc/default/ntpdate it should keep your Angstrom
distribution synced with even less effort than following your instructions.
I followed the instructions and it works. But my question is why does it need both
ntpdate and ntp? I thought that ntpdate was deprecated and the functionality is now
included in ntp.

Hi.
Thanks for the writeup. I am not able to find my region listed in the /etc/localtime
folder. I am in GMT + 5:30. How do I proceed?
Thank you.
Setting the hardware clock as described seems to ignore the timezone. Heres my
ntp log.
1 Jan 03:18:23 ntpd[255]: DNS 3.ch.pool.ntp.org -> 130.60.204.10
21 Aug 12:04:33 ntpd[135]: ntpd: time set +430386363.526481 s
(here also the hardware clock was set)
21 Aug 12:05:51 ntpd[344]: ntpd exiting on signal 15
21 Aug 14:06:13 ntpd[128]: Deferring DNS for 0.ch.pool.ntp.org 1
21 Aug 12:06:27 ntpd[128]: ntpd: time set -7200.366256 s
After the reboot there is a 2 hour delay (Im in Paris timezone) which presumably is the
hardwareclock. This gets corrected by the ntpd call, but thats not the goal.
Any idea how to set the hardware clock by taking correctly into account the timezone?

To set the hardware clock with UTC time, use the utc option.
By the way, why using a ln command to set the time zone.
timedatectl list-timezones and timedatectl set-timezone do the job
Hi,
I need some help. I followed the exact procedure and my timezone is changed but as
mentioned by Stefan the the date is Fri 1999-12 31 and NTP Synchronized = NO. Could you

Hello, Im able to synchronize the Beaglebone when its connected to my LAN, but if
instead I of connecting to that I connect the beagle to a 3G/GPRS router, the beagle
is unable to get the date. I can transfer some files across the router, but not to synchronize the
board.
Ive update to the 2013-09-04 image on my BBB and followed the steps and
succeeded finally. I am grateful for the detailed explanation and wanna add the
following from my experience:
1) NTP is installed on my BBB, i.e. I can call ntp. But somehow the ntpd is not installed. So, I
think several problems mentioned above are the same type, that the ntpd is not installed.
2) Following the steps with the ntpd did NOT solve the issue. After reboot the time was simply still

the same. I was able to fix it with the reply from Matt Richardson above. So, the question for me
after following these lines, if I really need to do the opkg install ntp or not. i.e. Would it have
succeed with just the installed image processes or not? After removing the ntpd.service the
function was still available. I dont mind too much since it works now
3) The trick with the hwclock is the one I like really
4) Does anybody know how to make the above steps as a script? This would be very useful in
case of an image-update.

I am new to Linux. Its been time consuming to follow the steps to make my BBB
update the date and time. It worked perfectly.
After I try Ubuntu I reloaded the Angstrom OS and the BBB went back the year 2000. I had to
repeat all the steps again.
Is it possible build a script to do this?
My regards and thanks

Using 2013-09-04 followed all your steps and time not correct after reboot, followed
Matt Richardsons method and it works now.
Hi Derek,
I just wanted to thank you for your clear & informative posts here and on YouTube.
Im something of a newbie to Linux so your information is a real lifeline to me. Your students are
lucky to have you!

Instead of linking the timezone file into /etc/localtime you can also run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
on any Debian-based system. Saves you a lot of hassle IMHO.
I wanted to disable the automatic date sync. I already removed ntp but BBB is getting
date when I connected to internet from somewhere that I do not know. Do you what
process is syncing when I connect the ethernet cable?

I just caught this and it might help others. Ive noticed that the file /etc/resolv.conf is not persistent
across the reboot. Adding the nameserver to the file was lost. So I placed the line echo
nameserver 8.8.8.8 >> /etc/resolv.conf into /usr/bin/g-ether-load.sh hoping that would work. It did
not and I think the reason is that /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten after g-ether-load.sh executes
during boot.
I know this is a leading question but could you tell me where to put it?
Hi,
I have developed an application (running on Beagle bone Black) which uses msmtp as
its smtp client. Now, When I run this application from BBB command prompt, application can
send email successfully. But after that, I have created a service which will start my application
automatically every time BBB boot-up but in this case, application can not send email.
Also, I have added some debug messages in my application. When I run this application manually
from command line, I can see debug messages on command window but in case of auto startm
these debug messages are not there.
Can you please share your inputs in this regard.
Thanks,

Dima,
Did you ever find a solution for your BBB? I have been having the same issues.
Hi,
I am working on my own board which I have RTC and the board is 90% reference from
BeagleBone Black. I would like to know how can I get the NTP installed (default) in my OS
(Wheezy) image when I distribute my boards to customers? I could not afford to install/repeat the
process in every single boards.
Thank you!

Hi all,
I have read that one may connect a rechargeable battery to the power management IC
pins on the board (they are unpopulated), then it may be possible to have an almost permanent
RTC functionality such as wake up events etc.
I hope to investigate it if I get one of these boards:

I have managed to install the NTP daemon and get it synchronizing to the internet fine
by following the instructions above. However, I would like to get the board synced to a
GPS time reference. I have inherited a LC2750 GPS time reference from these guys:
http://www.TimeToolsGlobal.com. Has anyone used one of these or have any information on how
to use GPS for syncing in general?
