The YaST NTP config speaks something of a chroot jail. If I am not mistaken this will run the ntp application in a confined environment -- so that someone who inserts a malicious script into an ntp server cannot (extensively or at all?) damage your system.
Are you sure your manual su ntp command will have this safety?
Yes, because you are calling a script that will set it up if told to do so. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFD/biutTMYHG2NR9URArXqAKCRbxqxyWLHB9f6SIILK/oHI7y+yACeMH6v KgOIm57RqqTUpgMaOCx1uyI= =k2Nf -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
