[Freeipa-devel] Updating time&data servers system

[Andrey Bychkov]

Hello!

I'm thinking of adding a separate modules, which will contain all the 
functions for working with the time and date server. Namely:

1. Will be create a file ntpserverconf.py in the ipaserver/install/ 
directory. This file will contain configurations and methods for 
configuring the time server and synchronization. The methods from this 
file will be called when you install the server 
(ipaserver/install/server/install.py).
2. Will be create the ntpclientconf.py file in the ipaclient/install/ 
directory. This file will contain methods for synchronizing the client 
with the server, which will be called from ipaclient/install/client.py
3. Will be add support for ntpd and openntpd time servers
4. Will be add a mechanism for selecting the server configuration, 
depending on what is present in the system
5. Also, can make packages for each time server with its dependencies.

This will ensure the operation of the freeipa on platforms with 
different time servers and will simplify the addition of support for the 
new servers.
What can you say about this?
