Description Miroslav Lichvar 2012-12-06 13:04:53 UTC

Description of problem:
The sntp program from the ntp package is a replacement for ntpdate, but it's not confined. Changing its context to ntpdate_exec_t doesn't seem to break it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
selinux-policy-targeted-3.10.0-159.fc17.noarch

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-12-06 19:37:00 UTC

Is it just binary replacement? Or are there new paths for lib/log/run files?

Comment 2 Miroslav Lichvar 2012-12-06 19:43:13 UTC

It's not a drop-in replacement for ntpdate, but their functionality is very similar. The only differences I see now is that sntp doesn't use libcap and it writes to /var/lib/sntp-kod.
