Can chrony keep the system clock a fixed offset away from real time?
I have not experimented much, but I don’t believe this would be possible as the program currently stands. 12.4. What happens if the network connection is dropped without using chronyc’s ‘offline’ command first? In this case chronyd will keep trying to access the server(s) that it thinks are online. Eventually it will decide that they are unreachable and no longer consider itself synchronised to them.

See the Git link on the home page for information. 14. Linux-specific issues 14.1. Why does the source code include kernel header files? The program needs to see the definitions of structures used to interact with th
