Assistance Needed Time Drift / Time Off on Chromebooks
Have two schools reporting this issue same day. Time is off and drifting on Chromebooks.
This is interesting for me for a few reasons:
- Chromebooks don't use NTP like AD DS / Domain Computers
- We haven't made any setting or config changes to security / domain traffic
- These two school districts utilize very different ISPs for internet uplink
I just went in and set Timezones automatically and to send all location data up to Google under Chrome OS Device settings. Going to see if that helps. But..it's weird seeing two sites both have the same issue all the sudden; going to start monitoring the rest of our sites. But...figured I'd reach out here to see if anyone else is experiencing this.
