Quickly Update Kali Linux Date/Time with NTP

A quick way to update the system date/time on Kali when not accurate is to restart the ntp service.

service ntp restart

As long as your Kali machine has Internet access, the system date/time should automatically update.

Another handy command to use on Kali is the service --status-all command to show all running services.

If you are curious what a service is doing, check the logs with journalctl -u servicename (ntp.)
