seems like a non-SmartOS related error? Van: Paul Dunkler [mailto:[email protected]] Verzonden: donderdag 4 februari 2016 12:45 Aan: [email protected] Onderwerp: [smartos-discuss] ntpd not starting up with Hi list, just tried to get ntp time daemon (ntpd) working in one of the latest centos-7 lx-images. Could not get it working with the default configuration ("ntpd -u ntp:ntp"). I am getting the following error: cap_set_proc() failed to drop root privileges: Operation not permitted Did an strace and found following errors: adjtimex(0x7fffff2ae920) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) connect(5, {sa_family=AF_UNSPEC, sa_data="\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) connect(5, {sa_family=AF_UNSPEC, sa_data="\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) connect(5, {sa_family=AF_UNSPEC, sa_data="\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) adjtimex(0x7fffff2ae920) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) capset({_LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION_3, 0}, {CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_SYS_TIME, CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_SYS_TIME, CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE|CAP_SYS_TIME}) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) It's working well when i start it under the root user. Could supply whole strace output if needed.
