Enable time synchronization
Always set the system clock to the right time.
There are several reasons for this, including:
-
It ensures that logging and auditing timestamps are accurate.
-
It is useful when correlating events across multiple systems.
-
It is essential to ensure correct behavior if replication conflicts arise.
-
It is necessary for time-sensitive authentication mechanisms like GSSAPI and UNBOUNDID-TOTP.
-
It is important for time-related password policy processing.
