# ntp_conf
|
|
|
|
Use the `ntp_conf` InSpec audit resource to test the synchronization settings defined in the `ntp.conf` file. This file is typically located at `/etc/ntp.conf`.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
## Availability
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
This resource is distributed along with InSpec itself. You can use it automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Version
|
|
|
|
This resource first became available in v1.0.0 of InSpec.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
An `ntp_conf` resource block declares the synchronization settings that should be tested:
|
|
|
|
describe ntp_conf('path') do
|
|
its('setting_name') { should eq 'value' }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
* `'setting_name'` is a synchronization setting defined in the `ntp.conf` file
|
|
* `('path')` is the non-default path to the `ntp.conf` file
|
|
* `{ should eq 'value' }` is the value that is expected
|
|
|

### Test for clock drift against named servers
|
|
|
|
describe ntp_conf do
|
|
its('driftfile') { should eq '/var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift' }
|
|
its('server') { should eq [
|
|
0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org,
|
|
1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org,
|
|
2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org
|
|
] }
