vt.common/network-time

Sets the host timezone and enables NTP.

Note: NTP is not enabled for virtualized guests, as the system clock should be managed and synchronized by the hypervision host.

See:

• systemd-timesyncd

• Disable systemd-timesyncd in VirtualBox guests

• How to correctly sync time in linux running as virtual guest after host resumes from hibernation?

• Ubuntu inside virtual machine: ntpd or ntpdate or ??? to avoid clock drift
