>Description: Calling /etc/rc.d/ntpd stop issue an error "ntpd not running? (check /var/run/ntpd.pid)." but ntpd is active! # /etc/rc.d/ntpd start Starting ntpd. # ps auxww | grep ntpd root 2577 0.5 0.1 22196 4052 ?? Ss 10:37PM 0:00.04 /usr/sbin/ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf -L # cat /var/run/ntpd.pid cat: /var/run/ntpd.pid: No such file or directory # /etc/rc.d/ntpd stop ntpd not running? (check /var/run/ntpd.pid). But ntpd is actually running: # ps auxww | grep ntpd root 2577 0.0 0.1 22196 4064 ?? Ss 10:37PM 0:00.06 /usr/sbin/ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf -L >How-To-Repeat: Enable ntpd in your /etc/rc.conf file with echo "ntpd_enable='YES'" >> /etc/rc.conf Start ntpd with /etc/rc.d/ntpd start Than stop it with /etc/rc.d/ntpd stop You get the error "ntpd not running? (check /var/run/ntpd.pid)." Use ps auxww | grep ntpd to check that NTPD is actually running. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
