I'm working on getting some servers running in the EC2 environment and I'm noticing some errors with ntpd trying to sync (using CentOS).
I was reading on this site and the impression I get is that I don't need to run ntpd since EC2 is Xen and the host takes care of the time for the virtual servers.

Is this accurate or do I need to figure out how to get around the error I'm having?
cap_set_proc() failed to drop root privileges
It looks like it involves building a new kernel and other stuff I'd rather not do if I don't have to.
