Description Stef Walter 2012-09-19 12:15:02 UTC 
Description of problem:

When I click the gears next to 'Network Time OFF', a set of NTP servers is shown. If I press cancel, and then click the gears again, the NTP servers have been cleared.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 18-Alpha

I'm sorry, but I cannot reproduce it. Could you please attach logs from such case and describe, how you can reproduce it step by step? Does it happen on live installation?
Comment 2 Vratislav Podzimek 2012-09-20 11:11:32 UTC 
Okay, I've successfully reproduced this issue. It happens when you click on OK button of the NTPServers dialog and then in a short time click the gears again.

This is not enough. One has to click OK, in a short time click the gears again, click Cancel and click gears again. OK button saves servers to the configuration file and Cancel causes that this file is read. I have no idea why, but this obviously leads to an empty configuration file and thus no servers in the list.

To continue my monologue...
Problem is in saving NTP servers to the configuration file, which leads in an empty file. Fix posted to anaconda-patches list.

No additional info needed.

Pushed to master.

This bug looks to have been fixed for many anaconda builds now but missed being closed. If you find you are still experiencing it with Fedora 18 Beta (RC1) or later, please re-open the bug.
