That disables monlist across the board, whereas the restrict mechanism allows you to disable it selectively: restrict default nomodify nopeer noquery notrap restrict localhost not quite as fine-grained, though, since "disable monitor" only disables monlist while "restrict noquery" blocks all ntpq / ntpdc queries. Of course, the default behavior for a sensible NTP implementation should be to ignore everything except time queries. DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
