Hi, Help, please.
When I try to start 'ntpd' on a netbsd system, I get 'sendto(32.33.33.1): Bad file descriptor' error message and the ntpd daemon does not start. A search on the internet tells that this kind of error message is seen if there is an existing ntpd daemon is running and the use is starting another daemon. But I did not have any daemon running prior to my execution of the ntpd command. I have the following entry in my /etc/ntp.conf server 32.33.33.1 restrict 127.0.0.1 The command I used is: # ./ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf # Jul 9 07:18:28 Ericsson ntpd[981]: sendto(32.33.33.1): Bad file descriptor Here is the debug log of the 'ntpd' I tried to run.
