Hi, I am cross-posting this from the CentOS list - there have been plenty of views but no answers and I'm not sure exactly where to post... So I have CentOS 6 (x64) - apparently nptd "Ver. 4.2.4p8". My problem is that I have too many IPs for ntpd to do a listen on every one. So I tried restricting both with adding -I eth0 on the command line parameters (in /etc/sysconf/ntpd) and with the interface instruction in /etc/ntp.conf. Neither works, and ntpd refuses to start.
...
