Ensure Chrony is only configured with the server directive

An XCCDF Rule

Description

Check that Chrony only has time sources configured with the server directive.

warning alert: Warning

This rule doesn't come with a remediation, the time source needs to be added by the administrator.

Rationale

Depending on the infrastructure being used the pool directive may not be supported. Using the server directive allows for better control of where the system gets time data from.
