Hi,

sudo is enabled for this task

elk_common_packages sudo: yes

and yet you are getting permissions related error:

stderr: /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf: Permission denied

The error is not related to this playbook. Try to purge openntpd package.

Also didnt work for me

th problem is that the openntpd package in being installed. When you already have the nap package, it conflicts.

You need to remove the ntp package before and make sure its config files are purged
