Ntpd and chroot

[john_lelos]

Hello all

I apologise if this has been answered previously, but searching turned up nothing for me.

I am trying to get ntpd to start inside a chroot directory.
I have solved a few issues I had until now but I have stuck with authentication.

I get the following error:

ntpd[22401]: Command line: /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/chroot/ntp/var/run/ntpd.pid -i /var/chroot/ntp -4 -u ntp:ntp
systemd[1]: Started LSB: Start NTP daemon.
ntp[22392]: Starting NTP server: ntpd.
ntpd[22403]: proto: precision = 0.303 usec (-22)
ntpd[22403]: line 52 column 17 syntax error, unexpected T_Key, expecting T_EOC
ntpd[22403]: syntax error in /etc/ntp.conf line 52, column 17

and this relates to ntp.conf:

48: enable auth
49: keys /etc/ntp/ntpkeys
50: trustedkey 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

52: restrict 10.2.2.10 key 8

Any idea why authentication fails?

“restrict” doesn’t have a “key” flag, does it?

Note 1: Also note that ntpd fails to find the keys when running in a chroot environment.

Does this apply until today?
