Ensure the Time Service Is Enabled

SedangLevel 1Otomatismacos

Deskripsi

In macOS 10.14, Apple replace ntp with timed for time services, and is used to ensure correct time is kept. Correct date and time settings are required for authentication protocols, file creation, modification dates, and log entries. Kerberos may not operate correctly if the time on the Mac is off by more than 5 minutes. This in turn can affect Apple's single sign-on feature, Active Directory logons, and other features.
