next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I have one 7.0-RELEASE machine running NTP with the following settings.
---------------- rc.conf -----------------
ntpd_enable="YES"
ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"
---------------- ntp.conf ---------------
server ntp2.sp.se
server ntp.lth.se
server ntp1.sp.se
driftfile /etc/ntp/ntp.drift
on my second machine 7.1-BETA amd64, the same configuration produces
this error
------------------------------------------------------
:/etc/rc.d/ntpd start
Starting ntpd.

please send bug reports to: http://bugs.ntp.isc.org, bugs@ntp.org
-----------------------------------------------------
If I comment out the
ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"
line.
ntp starts without any error.
Should I accept this or is something wrong?
Thanks
