Hi,
Debian needs the following addition to the NTP policy:
ifdef(`distro_debian', `
# cronjob to rotate ntp statistic files
create_dir_file(system_crond_t, ntpd_log_t)
')
Since the ntp package contains a cronjob to rotate the ntp stats file,
which are created by default. ntpd doesn't have security critical logs,
so I think it's okay to have the cronjob do that directly. I've filed a
bug report with debian
(http://bugs.debian.org/340781 ) to request they use logrotate... (but
I'm not sure if logrotate currently can handle the timestamped file
naming they use)
best regards,
Erich Schubert
