#3092 [RFE] NTP Sync during client install
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by rcritten.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=858302 (Fedora)

Description of problem:  During client install with the --no-ntp option, I see
the following messages:
Synchronizing time with KDC...
Unable to sync time with IPA NTP server, assuming the time is in sync.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.2


How reproducible:  Every time I install the client with --no-ntp


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  ipa-client-install --domain=blah --mkhomedir -w blah --realm=BLAH --no-ntp
--server=ipaserver.blah --unattended
2.
3.

Actual results:
Synchronizing time with KDC...
Unable to sync time with IPA NTP server, assuming the time is in sync.


Expected results:
Not sure - but something along these lines:
"Time configuration skipped."


Additional info:
Might be worth putting in an `ntpq -p` type check if the user has requested to
skip NTP configuration.  If no synced time servers can be found, warn the user
that time sync is unavailable on this client.

With #4842, this finishes the ticket.
