Description of problem: Clean installation of F17 Beta i686 Live into VM. I open Date and Time configuration and slide "Network Time" to ON. When I check in terminal, chronyd.service is disabled and stopped. I reboot. chronyd.service is obviously still disabled and stopped. When I open Date and Time configuration, "Network Time" is set to OFF. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-3.4.0-1.fc17.i686 chrony-1.27-0.1.pre1.fc17.i686 How reproducible: on VM and on bare-metal Expected results: chronyd.service is enabled and running, time is synchronized, and date and time configuration shows that network time is enabled.
Proposing as F17 blocker: "All elements of the default panel (or equivalent) configuration in all release-blocking desktops must function correctly in common use" https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_17_Final_Release_Criteria
Please note that when I select "Synchronize time over the network" in firstboot, it enables and starts chronyd.service correctly, but Date and Time configuration still shows "Network Time" as OFF. It is probably related issue. If it is not, I'll report it separately, let me know.
systemd upstream will now activate/enable systemd-timedated-ntp.target instead of ntpd.service or chrony.service. These two packages should then hook into the target to get started indirectly. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=e2875c46936a16efc0f58f9e6e2570cdda8d6d98 What's left to do: - get this into Fedora - updte chrony and ntpd to include the necessary .wants/ symlink and BindTo directive
Can you provide chrony/ntpd patches and file bugs ?
systemd-44-7.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/systemd-44-7.fc17

Not create it using the [Install] section) The BindTo directive will go into chronyd.service's [Unit] section and say: BindTo=systemd-timedated-ntp.target Going to clone this bug for chrony and ntpd now.

update works F17-TC2
DVD TC2 install, enabled time sync during first boot. chronyd is running, and systemd reports active status, persistent through reboot. Appears to be fixed.
Discussed in the 2012-05-01 blocker bug review meeting. This doesn't clearly hit any release criteria and it sounds like it could be fixed with an update. Please re-test with a new F17 install using final TC2 or newer and see if this has indeed been fixed.
systemd-44-7.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
Fix confirmed.
you have to install ntp daemon its in fedora update-testing 1.yum install ntp* 2. reboot 3. service ntpd start/restart or systemctl start ntpd.service 4. enable ntpd systemctl enable ntp.service after that when i logged in again i checked the status wit systemctl status ntpd.service here's the output [root@localhost liveuser]# systemctl status ntpd.service ntpd.service - Network Time Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ntpd.service; enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu, 03 May 2012 04:56:57 +0530 Main PID: 2030 (ntpd) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/ntpd.service └ 2030 /usr/sbin/ntpd -u ntp:ntp -g May 03 04:56:57 localhost.localdomain ntpd[2030]: peers refreshed May 03 04:56:57 localhost.localdomain ntpd[2030]: Listening on routing socket...
