NTP daemon

The NTP daemon is a background software process that keeps your computer's clock accurate by synchronizing it with precise time servers on the internet. It continuously adjusts the system clock to match the correct time, ensuring consistency across devices and accurate timestamps for files, transactions, and logs. This synchronization is essential for tasks like secure communications, scheduling, and data integrity. The daemon operates quietly in the background, using complex algorithms to account for network delays and clock drift, ultimately providing reliable, synchronized timekeeping for your system.
