Maybe if you tell us why you are trying to do that we could give you a better
solution than what you are trying. (The offset command tells chrony to read
the timestamps from the server as though they were out by 40 sec, not send
those)
If you do
chronyc
it will tell you the version
tunnel:0[unruh]>chronyc
chrony version 3.4

Also why do you not show us exactly what the command is that you have in
chrony.conf and also what the error message is.

I’m trying to use chronyd in a broadcast environment and need to setup an NTP server that is 40 seconds ahead of realtime.
I tried editing /etc/chrony.conf and adding
offset 40.0
But when I went to relaunch I got an error on the line I added.

I read somewhere that the offset command only works in new versions but I couldn’t find a command to tell me what version I’m running and yum update chrony returns “nothing to do”
Is what I’m trying to accomplish even possible? I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.
