 |
|
I was running NTP 4.2.0, which I had compiled from source with no problems. I decided to install the Emerge version so it would keep me up to date with any changes that might happen. But, I know get the following error in my log file:
Aug 25 15:26:39 apple ntpd[7833]: can't open /etc/ntp.drift.TEMP: Permission den
ied
How do I fix this problem?
Thanks,
Jeff |

| What are the permissions of that file? The default for ntpd on Gentoo is to run as the "ntp" user/group. |

Yeasterday I emerged ntp and have same problem.
| Code: | | Feb 4 13:01:16 [ntpd] can't open /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift.TEMP: Permission denied |
In /etc/groups and /etc/passwd ntp was added.
But:
| Code: | root@radfoj radfoj # ls -l /var/lib/ntp/*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 úno 4 01:12 /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift |
It means I have to change permissions to ntp/ntp.
Why it couldnt be done automaticly by "emerge"? |
