[Samba] Building NTP RPM Fails on CentOS 6.3

[Thomas Simmons]

Thank you, Stephen.

It seems I can't edit the wiki, but here are "copy and paste" instructions
for building and installing ntp 4.2.6p5 RPMS on CentOS 6.3.

yum remove ntp ntpdate
yum install libcap-devel openssl-devel libedit-devel
mkdir -p ~/install_files/ntp
cd ~/install_files/ntp
wget
http://vault.centos.org/6.3/os/Source/SPackages/ntp-4.2.4p8-2.el6.centos.src.rpm
rpm -i ntp-4.2.4p8-2.el6.centos.src.rpm
cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES
wget
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ntp-4.2/ntp-4.2.6p5.tar.gz
cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS
cp ntp.spec ntp.spec.bak
sed -i 's/Version: 4.2.4p8/Version: 4.2.6p5/g' ntp.spec
sed -i 's/--enable-linuxcaps/--enable-linuxcaps --enable-ntp-signd/g'
ntp.spec
sed -i 's/%patch/#%patch/g' ntp.spec
sed -i 's/%{_sbindir}\/tickadj/%{_sbindir}\/tickadj\n%{_sbindir}\/sntp/g'
ntp.spec
rpmbuild -ba ntp.spec
cd ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/$(uname -i)/
rpm -i ntp-4.2.6p5-2.el6.$(uname -i).rpm ntpdate-4.2.6p5-2.el6.$(uname
-i).rpm
