Thanx David.

I run the 'ntpd'.

What platform?
What version of NetBSD?
On i386 with NetBSD since 1.5x I would expect to see those
entries in group wheel, ie.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4 Jun 19 19:09 inetd.pid
what are the ntpd files in /usr/sbin? I have:
ntp-keygen
ntpd
ntpdate
ntpdc
ntpq
ntptime
ntptrace
sntp
Those are all from the base system but it's easy enough to compile
a more recent version either in /usr/pkg/(s)bin or /usr/local/bin.
On the oldest system I have in use I have 4.2.0-r in /usr/sbin and
4.2.6p2 in /usr/local/bin.
Note that just copying binaries from a different NetBSD version
might not work.

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.

I've never seen that error but sometimes my /var/run entry
for ntpd doesn't get deleted and ntpd refuses to run with
an error that ntpd is already running. In that case
removal
of the file in /var/run is all that's needed.
