Description of problem: Menu item System/Administration/Date & Time, Network Time Protocol tab, advanced features, select synchronize before starting, Ok, "Contacting NTP server, please wait" alert box, then an SE Linux audit comes up, which would be ignored by: allow ntpd_t user_home_t:file { read append }; Also system-config-date _always_ does service ntpd restart, which it shouldn't if nothing was changed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Linux beta.localnet 2.6.25-0.121.rc5.git4.fc9 #1 SMP Fri Mar 14 23:14:20 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Menu item System/Administration/Date & Time, Network Time Protocol tab, advanced features, select synchronize before starting, 2. Click OK. 3. Actual results: Always restarts ntpd even if no change. ntpd gets SElinux error trying to write to .xsession-errors Expected results: Only restart ntpd if appropriate. Make sure output is not directed to .xsession-errors. (It was probably the restarting NTP server ... [OK] message, but I didn't check). Additional info:
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
No selinux issues here, but it does seem to restart ntp, Fedora 10.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
