nixpkgs/modules/services/networking/ntpd.nix
Eelco Dolstra 5ebdee3577 * Continued refactoring the tree: moved most Upstart jobs (namely
those that run daemons) to modules/services.  This probably broke
  some things since there are a few relative paths in modules
  (e.g. imports of system/ids.nix).
* Moved some PAM modules out of etc/pam.d to the directories of NixOS
  modules that use them.
