Ntpd error msg

[Shawn Wall]

Hello list,

I've just installed a new 5.3 server and I have setup ntpd. When I start the
daemon I get this error msg:

Wintermute ntpd[512]: Frequency format error in /var/db/ntpd.drift

Here is my ntp.conf:

Driftfile /var/db/ntpd.drift

Server pool.ntp.org
Server pool.ntp.org
Server pool.ntp.org
Server pool.ntp.org

Restrict default ignore

Ntpd.drift is located in /var/db/

Any ideas? Thanks.

You should be able to zero out the file and it
should be regenerated.

It shouldn't matter, but the drift file is usuallly
named ntp.drift and is located in /etc:
