    Clock displaying incorrect time

    Kali clock is not displaying the correct local time.
    Running timedatectl gives the following:

    Local time: Tue 2021-02-23 05:21:36 SAST
    Universal time: Tue 2021-02-23 03:21:36 UTC
    RTC time: Tue 2021-02-23 03:21:36
    Time zone: Africa/Johannesburg (SAST, +0200)
    System clock synchronized: yes
    NTP service: active
    RTC in local TZ: no

    BUT my clock displays 03:21. The Time Zone setting in the Clock properties is set to SAST.

    Any pointers will be appreciated.

    In the Troubleshooting Achive there is a work around: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...509#post104509

    for me it worked for a couple of weeks however today its stopped and have to update manually i.e. date -s '16 June 2021 04:09:00'

    The solution should have worked permanently so not sure why it isn't...

    UPDATE:WORKING AGAIN

    I must have revisited the timesyncd.conf file and accidentally changed something in the NTP=xx.pool.ntp.org. I live in asia and as such NTP=asia.pool.ntp.org. Go to www.pool.ntp.org for timezone NTP servers.
