    Time sync with public ntp server

    I want to make this hard disk installation do a time
    sync from a public ntp server.

    Where can I set this up so that it will do a
    time sync every 14 hours ?

    ntpdate

    Use apt to install it if you don't have it. Then simply use cron to run it whenever you like.

    Code:
    dpkg -p ntpdate
    Package: ntpdate
    Priority: optional
    Section: net
    Installed-Size: 156
    Maintainer: Debian NTP Team <debian-ntp@gag.com>
    Architecture: i386
    Source: ntp
    Version: 1:4.2.0a-11
    Replaces: ntp (<< 1:4.0.98a), xntp, xntp3
    Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4)
    Suggests: ntp
    Conflicts: ntp (<< 1:4.0.98a), chrony

    Description: The ntpdate client for setting system time from NTP servers
     NTP, the Network Time Protocol, is used to keep computer clocks accurate
     over the Internet, or by following an accurate hardware receiver which
     interprets GPS, DCF-77, NIST or similar time signals.
     .
     ntpdate is a simple NTP client which allows a system's clock to be set
     to match the time obtained by communicating with one or more servers.
     .
     ntpdate is optional (but recommended) if you're running an NTP server,
     because initially setting the system clock to an almost-correct time
     will help the NTP server synchronize faster.
     .
     The ntpdate client by itself is useful for occasionally setting the time on
     machines that are not on the net full-time, such as laptops.
