Summary: (FC2) ntpd pemission warning on client nodes

Initial Comment:
OS: fedora-release-2-4
OSCAR Version: 4 (trunk)
NTP Version: ntp-4.2.0-7

A lot of ntpd warning logs were found on FC2 client nodes. For 
example, the warnings are like this:

Dec 11 15:14:07 node1 ntpd[3521]: can't open /etc/ntp/drift.TEMP:
Permission denied
Dec 11 16:14:10 node1 ntpd[3521]: can't open /etc/ntp/drift.TEMP:
Permission denied

This only happens when the owner of /etc/ntp is not 'ntp', the ntpds 
seem to be still working. However these messages would 
overwhelm the log file on the master node. Mugster reported that 
it was okay on ntp-4.1.2-0.rc1.2 (FC2), therefore I suspect that the  
/etc/ntp uid:gid somehow got changed after a certain system 
update (yum update).

A quick fix to avoid these warning messages would be:
1. # cexec "chown ntp:ntp /etc/ntp"
2. # chown ntp:ntp /var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/etc/
ntp

Any patch on OSCAR scripts/post_rpm_install is welcomed. ;-)
