Description Miroslav Lichvar 2007-07-23 15:12:31 UTC 
Description of problem:
I'm preparing a support for public key cryptography in the ntp package and it
would be nice if the keys had a different context so other daemons can't read
them. The keys will be manually generated by administrator with ntp-keygen in
/etc/ntp/crypto directory or copied from another host.

Would be also good to mark the /etc/ntp/keys file used for symmetric key
cryptography.

Please add to ntp.fc something like this:

/etc/ntp/crypto(/.*)?         gen_context(system_u:object_r:ntpd_key_t,s0)
/etc/ntp/keys              -- gen_context(system_u:object_r:ntpd_key_t,s0)

and allow ntpd and ntpdate to read the keys.

Thanks.
