Also, because of the next sentence, we will not really need to discourage use of two time daemons. Just show the information about temporal chaos. The reasoning for this is the next sentence where the user is informed about how to run two time daemons in a cooperative manner: > > If both timed and another time daemon > are run on the same machine, ensure that the -F flag is used, > so that timed never attempts to adjust the local clock. Therefore, this should terminate the use of ``or others'' and the mentioning of ``timed(8) and ntpd(8)''. This last sentence also invalidates the suggested ``do not attempt to run ntpd(8) and timed(8) ...''.
