ntpdate has not been patched to drop root privileges, yet... Hmm? I can run "ntpdate -U ntp ..." by hand and it works. Also "man ntpdate" mentions the -U option. oops... forgot about that :) ... ok, then you are right :) Removing Security keyword, because there's no known exploit vector. An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
