As an experiment I undated the Xenial partition on zapp. In /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf define this:

[Time]
NTP=ntp1.utexas.edu
FallbackNTP=ntp2.utexas.edu

Then run:

sudo systemctl restart systemd-timesyncd

That seemed to work. The time now agrees with my phone.

Unfortunately, nixons-head is still running Trusty, which does not have the newer systemd-timesyncd service. It'll need a different solution.

Should the robots be configured to use the UT time servers, too?
