the ntpserver is just a waist of memory for a raspi and its enough to synchro the time every couple hours.

follow this:

  1. right time zone:
    [code]$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
    [/code]
  2. deinstall ntp server:
    [code]$ sudo apt-get purge ntp
    [/code]
  3. install ntpdate:
    [code]$ sudo apt install ntpdate
    [/code]
  4. add cron entry:
    [code]$ sudo crontab -e
    @reboot ntpdate -s 0.de.pool.ntp.org
    0 */6 * * * ntpdate -s 0.de.pool.ntp.org
    [/code]
