Problem with timedatectl and network time synchronisation in 16.04

Image
6 I have a dual-boot machine with Windows and Xubuntu 16.04. Because of Windows, the hardware clock is set to local time, so I had to use timedatectl to make Xubuntu aware of that after the upgrade to 16.04. The problem is that either I am not able to enable network time synchronization, or timedatectl is giving me wrong output. systemctl list-units | grep time seems to indicate that the network time service is running: systemd-timesyncd.service loaded active running Network Time Synchronization time-sync.target loaded active active System Time Synchronized At the same time, timedatectl returns this: Network time on: yes NTP synchronized: no RTC in local TZ: no Despite what the documentation says, sudo timedatectl set-ntp true has no effect. Any ideas?
