Sometimes I look up small things and then I immediately forget them. I decided to write them down here in case I need them again in the future. Also the date of the each post uses european formatting.
28/11/2016 - Set time on Ubuntu
In general, to set the time on an Ubuntu machine you can use ntpdate. The syntax is:
ntpdate $SERVER_NAME
Usually, the Ubuntu ntpserver (ntp.ubuntu.com) works well, but at CMU you will need to use one of CMU's server (ac-ntp0.net.cmu.edu, ac-ntp1.net.cmu.edu, ac-ntp2.net.cmu.edu)
