>Release:        FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	

>Description:

	xntpd does not detach from the controlling terminal. The
	code around the daemon(...) call is guarded by a check
	for 'i386' that I suspect is a holdover from an early
	buggy version of daemon().

>How-To-Repeat:

	

>Fix:
	
	A simple fix to /usr/src/usr.sbin/xntpd/xntpd/ntpd.c follows.
	I've run this under FreeBSD 2.0 and 2.0.5 as well as
	BSD/OS 1.1 and 2.0 for months with no ill effects.

	This should all be obsoleted by a newer version of the
	NTP distribution, but I don't know what your plans are.
