I've observed similar issues with services-admin and time-admin. Any modifications to the system made in either application does not result in a change. This behavior is observed in both the LiveCD, and the resulting installed system. So the problem appears to be common to all of the gnome-system-tools.

services-admin: Checked service (NTP) clicked close. There is no indication the change was not made unless services-admin reopened and the situation is observed.

time-admin: Changed timezone, clicked close. Get warning that user not authorized to make change. This occurs whether run with sudo or without.

It seems the "Unlock" button does not result in proper permissions, and a popup requesting password is conspicuously absent.

If there are any further questions, or requests for information, they will be answered promptly.

Happy Holidays,

Harvey
