Running ntpd or similar for time synchronisation

Hi there guys,

From what I’ve been reading it seems like it’s best practice to run ntpd or chrony on the server that you run your validators on. Is this something that’s already running as a service in dappnode?

How can I ensure that my validator won’t be vulnerable to the time issue that affected so many people on the testnet earlier this year?

Thank you

Ubuntu’s default clock is safe, you don’t have to worry about those issues for now. The testnet clock issue previously was caused by Prysm’s code exclusively and is now corrected.
