<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am facing a strange behavior with ntpd and need
help!!!...</FONT></DIV>

internal ntp server.</FONT></DIV>

message</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> "</FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Synchronizing with time server" appears before the ntpd message and
boths are started successfully.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However when I reboot the server the ntp fail to
start just on the first message "Synchronizing with time server
[FAILED]", and then the ntpd is not started. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After the boot process I log on as root and
do a "service ntpd start" and everything start to work...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The ntpd was added with the chkconfig command
and is started after the network...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
