Fixed In Version: aeolus-configure-2.8.6-1.el6cf
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Using aeolus-configure modified the /etc/ntp.conf and caused time sensitive services such as kerberos to fail. This fix ensures the NTP package is installed and the service is running without modifying the configuration. Time sensitive services no longer fail.

Description Ricky Nelson 2012-06-01 19:35:25 UTC
Using aeolus-configure modifies the /etc/ntp.conf. This caused other time-sensitive services to fail after some time (kerberos for example).

CloudForms should only list a requirement for accurate time and not change the NTP configurations itself.

This is fine, we can ensure the ntp package is installed and the service is running without modifying the configuration.

Patch doing so sent to list

Hm. Looks like the archives are no longer at https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/aeolus-devel/, or the archives are down. I currently get "Environment not found" when going to the archives.

Not sure if this has been vetted or not. Has the aeolus-devel list moved? I'd like to see the possible patch.
