Chrony configuration is customized for Debian, not RHEL8
Describe the Issue Paths in templates/chrony.conf.j2 doesn't match paths for RHEL8. Other parameters should also be inspected to make sure they're customized for RHEL8 (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/configuring_basic_system_settings/using-chrony_configuring-basic-system-settings).
Expected Behavior
Path to chrony.keys
should be /etc/chrony.keys
Path to chrony.drift
should be /var/lib/chrony/drift
Actual Behavior
Path to chrony.keys
is /etc/chrony/chrony.keys
Path to chrony.drift
is /var/lib/chrony/chrony.drift
Control(s) Affected 2.1.2
Possible Solution
- Update paths.
- Inspect chrony parameters to make sure they're customized for RHEL8 and not Debian
