The ntp user is created in the ntpdate package. If useradd fails, there is not much we can do here. Reassigning to shadow-utils. From https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771449 The workaround developed (for rawhide) therein was: bash-4.2$ sudo /sbin/restorecon -v -v -R /etc/{passwd,passwd-,group,shadow,gshadow} /sbin/restorecon reset /etc/passwd- context system_u:object_r:etc_t:s0->system_u:object_r:passwd_file_t:s0 Yet the user ntp still wasn't created on 'yum reinstall -y ntp ntpdate' bash-4.2$ rpm -q --scripts ntpdatepreinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): /usr/sbin/groupadd -g 38 ntp 2> /dev/null || : /usr/sbin/useradd -u 38 -g 38 -s /sbin/nologin -M -r -d /etc/ntp ntp 2>/dev/null || : Perhaps ignoring errors and stderr away to /dev/null isn't a great idea. For completeness, here's the full log of what I did to get to Happy. (first installing only ntp, but then reinstalling ntp and ntpdate, then manually creating the user and group after doing the restorecon indicated in 771449) bash-4.2$ sudo yum reinstall -y ntp | sudo tee -a /tmp/o.yum_install.out Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Setting up Reinstall Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package ntp.i686 0:4.2.6p4-2.fc17 will be reinstalled --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Reinstalling: ntp i686 4.2.6p4-2.fc17 rawhide 582 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Reinstall 1 Package Total download size: 582 k Installed size: 1.8 M Downloading Packages: Running Transaction Check Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : ntp-4.2.6p4-2.fc17.i686 1/1 warning: group ntp does not exist - using root warning: user ntp does not exist - using root warning: group ntp does not exist - using root warning: user ntp does not exist - using root warning: group ntp does not exist - using root Verifying : ntp-4.2.6p4-2.fc17.i686 1/1 Installed: ntp.i686 0:4.2.6p4-2.fc17 Complete! bash-4.2$ finger ntp finger: ntp: no such user.
