Unless you give the child zone the privileges it needs to do so - like
sys_time.  Though I don't know that that one's a big deal.
I would take the opposite approach - lock down logins to the global zone
and run privileged 'global' services like NTP, monitoring, backups and/or
NFS there, and then keep the child/local zones as thin as possible so that
the processes running in the zone that faced the Internet were minimal.

you have a good point about the order of services ... I'm just saying it
was strange that you considered it "safer" to run the daemons in the global
zone, as I'm kinda paranoid about that sort of thing myself.

The host (global zone) is booted prior to the zone and so it can not 
use the services of the zone until the zone is booted.  If the DNS 
server is running in the zone then some other means needs to be used 
for hostname/IP resolution while it is down.  The zone is typically 
down while booting and during system updates.


I don't see how this could be considered "strange".

strange, I prefer to run all my daemons in a zone as it keeps them separate
from the core operating system, and reduces the access to resources.

it's easy for a global zone to access the resources of the child, it's hard
for the child to access the global zone.

NTP running in GZ will care about system time.


The main reason is usually security.  Running network daemons inside 
of zones helps avoid problems if there is a security issue with the 
daemon.


I run named and ntp in the global zone since I worry that the host 
could have some dependencies on these protocols which impacts clean 
booting.

I got ntp working inside a zone, by granting a privilege in the master (in
zonecfg) and modifying the svc script in the client to not reject it ...
but it was many years ago.

the reason I did it, in that case was that the parent zone didn't have
access to the internet, but the child zone did.

I'm trying to find the server that did this, but I think it got rebuilt in
the end.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] NTP not starting in Zones

2018-09-12 Thread Jerry Kemp
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but typically, I typically only set time/run NTP in 
the Global zone, and my observations are that, NTP in
the Global zone will take care of the GZ, HW time and everything else.

As such, I do not run NTP, or do anything else to set time, aside from 
configuring the TZ (time zone) in local zones.

This has generally served me well since the Solaris 10 beta's.  I wouldn't 
expect a local zone to be able to access the HW clock.

Am I doing this wrong?

Hi

No unfortuantely not.
SMF Manifest has:








and
~# ls -alh /lib/svc/method/ntp
-r-xr-xr-x   1 root bin3.26K Feb 22  2018 /lib/svc/method/ntp

~# ls -alh /usr/lib/inet/ntpd
-r-xr-xr-x   1 root bin1.20M Sep  9 22:53 /usr/lib/inet/ntpd

Unfortunately not. Or do I need to check on another spot?
