    Disable time synchronization



    When I boot up my computer, Ubuntu automatically tries to synchronize time to ntp.ubuntulinux.org. But since my ISP requires that I use a small client to first connect to their network and then the internet starts to work, it fails to synchronize.

    Because of this my startup has become extremely slow because it takes about 3 Mins. tryin to synchronize and then fails. I want to turn off time synchronization. How to do that?

    Thanx in advance.

    update-rc.d -f ntpdate remove
    this removes all the symbolic links in the different runlevels.

    more information can be found with "man update-rc.d"
