[Bug 756406] [NEW] there is no easy way to edit/include servers for NTP to sync from like it used to

[PresuntoRJ]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ntp

Up to Maverick, when I needed to adjust my NTP daemon where I wanted it
to sync from, I could go to the Preferences/Date and time application
and add or remove addresses from there (it would then reflect on my
/etc/ntp.conf from then on) but now, there is no GUI for that... it
simply lets me turn it on or off... the list, preset with pretty sane
ntp providers, seemes OK, but one could want to sync to its local
server, and had to go back to console and vim the conf file (not a issue
for me, but... I believe it was a step back on Natty)
