Bug Description
Every day for the couple of several weeks when booting into Utopic the time is off usually by 4 hours.
I went to time and date settings and the ability to check get time Automatically from the internet is greyed out.
Even though it knows I am in US Eastern Standard time this does not fix it:

Current default time zone: 'America/New_York'
Local time is now: Tue Sep 30 08:09:32 EDT 2014.
Universal Time is now: Tue Sep 30 12:09:32 UTC 2014.
The only thing that will fix it is sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
This happens to me in Gnome Flashback (with Compiz) every single day but others report it happens in Unity too.

As a temporary workaround: daily/ntpdate
gksudo gedit /etc/cron.
Add this and save it:
#!/bin/sh
ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
Then sudo chmod 755 /etc/cron. daily/ntpdate to make it executable.
I found that on this page: /help.ubuntu. com/community/ UbuntuTime

When it boots up the time is four hours behind but after a few minutes it corrects itself.
