Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Fedora): Bug 1456863
Description of problem: In Fedora we have two NTP implementation: ntp and chrony. Currently, chrony is preferred for both NTP clients and servers. freeipa includes support for ntp in the ipa-{server,client}-install scripts and installs ntp as a dependency. There is no support for chrony. If there is interest I can try to implement the support in the scripts. However, as I understand it, the long-term goal in freeipa is to remove all NTP-specific configuration and rely on other tools for that. If it removes the dependency on ntp, that will work too.

Issue linked to bug 1463835
For a freeipa client installation, systemd-timesyncd should be enough as well since this is part of all newer distros that has systemd.
Is this a dup of #4669?
