    In redhat 9 the ntpd init script does this:

            # Open the firewall for ntp
             if [ -n "$FWACTIVE" -a "$FIREWALL_MODS" != "no" ]; then
               for server in $tickers $timeservers; do
                 echo -n $"$prog: Opening firewall for input from $server
    port 123"
                 iptables -I RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -m udp -p udp -s $server/32 \
                     --sport 123 -d 0/0 --dport 123 -j ACCEPT \
                     && success || failure

    (that's part of it). The question is why is this missing from fedora
    core 3?
