+# chrony
+
+This module monitors the precision and statistics of a local chronyd server.
+
+It produces:
+
+* frequency
+* last offset
+* RMS offset
+* residual freq
+* root delay
+* root dispersion
+* skew
+* system time
+
+**Requirements:**
+Verify that user netdata can execute `chronyc tracking`. If necessary, update `/etc/chrony.conf`, `cmdallow`.
+
+### Configuration
+
+Sample:
+```yaml
+# data collection frequency:
+update_every: 1
+
+# chrony query command:
+local:
+ command: 'chronyc -n tracking'
+```
