RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Daniel 2016-10-03 16:57:35 UTC 
system-config-date can't enable ntp, it is greyed out.

this is known(and fixed upstream) bug in system-config-date because it looks for /bin/systemd to confirm that the system uses systemd vs sysv.


upstream fix https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/system-config-date.git/commit/?id=59d355d8e8cd83a9667e2d0c402b3417e03eef63
Comment 2 Daniel 2017-03-28 17:14:06 UTC 
Still exists in 7.3
Comment 5 Daniel 2017-11-28 13:15:36 UTC 
What is happening with this bug? It is such a simple fix, what is taking so long? I am honestly disappointed since starting to use RHEL...
