openntpd adjtime call fails - capabilities falsely set?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi everybody,
I've installed openntpd (from source) on my woody system (I'm running a
self-compiled 2.6.9 kernel with vs1.9.3 patch) with POSIX capabilities
enabled.
Openntpd tries to set the time but fails. As the process is running as
root I suspect that I would have to set the appropriate capability to
enable it setting the time.
I seem to be blind - I don't find any documentation on how to use
capabilities as a user (and not a programmer).
BTW: The messages I get are:
Jan 8 13:10:15 max openntpd[22252]: adjusting local clock by -2869.708159s
Jan 8 13:10:15 max openntpd[22252]: adjusting local clock by -2869.708159s
Jan 8 13:10:15 max openntpd[22252]: adjtime failed: Invalid argument
ps faxu shows the following for openntpd:
root 22252 0.0 0.1 2320 1008 ? S Jan07 0:00
/usr/sbin/openntpd -f /etc/openntp/ntpd.conf
ntp 22253 0.0 0.1 2940 1104 ? S Jan07 0:00 \_
/usr/sbin/openntpd -f /etc/openntp/ntpd.conf
Any hints (what to do, where to find suitable documentation)?
Thanx a lot.
Greetings from Regensburg, Germany
