10 The wiki article is from 2008 and doesn't seem "too wrong",
11 but the current ebuilds are a bit more up to date wrt.
12 default config and init script. The current template config also
13 contains very detailed instructions and is probably the best way
14 to get started. How much you need to set up depends on your specific
15 use case - pure client, steady/interrupted connectivity, server for
16 other machines on the LAN..

18 If you only want to be a client just add one or multiple servers
19 to the config and you are good to go; chrony works well pretty much
20 out of the box.
