Yeah.. runs at home on my test gentoo box.
Something special in your setup? What does strace say?
Don't think so. We still use NIS for some stuff, but ntp is local in the passwd file anyway. Same error whether run as root or ntp: 1098 capget(0x19980330, 0, {, , }) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) 1098 capset(0x19980330, 0, {CAP_SYS_TIME, CAP_SYS_TIME, CAP_SYS_TIME}) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)1098 time([1096573769]) = 1096573769 1098 rt_sigaction(SIGPIPE, {0x2a9597ccb0, [], 0x4000000}, {SIG_IGN}, 8) = 0 1098 sendto(3, "<27>Sep 30 12:49:29 ntpd[1098]: "..., 102, 0, NULL, 0) = 102 1098 rt_sigaction(SIGPIPE, {SIG_IGN}, NULL, 8) = 0 1098 exit_group(-1) = ? Never seen capget/capset before myself.
