Topic

New chrony packages are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The chrony suite, chronyd and chronyc, is an advanced implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), specially designed to support systems with intermittent connections. It can synchronize the system clock with NTP servers, hardware reference clocks, and manual input. It can also operate as an NTPv4 (RFC 5905) server or peer to provide a time service to other computers in the network.

This enhancement update adds the chrony packages to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. (BZ#1274811)

All users who require chrony are advised to install these new packages.
