[Bug 569919] Re: ntpd constantly complains about being unable to create socket

[John Kounis]

I don't think this problem has been fixed yet. I'm running Maverick
10.10 with the updated ntp, but the problem is still occurring:

Jan  8 04:05:01 pgfs ntpd[2608]: synchronized to 91.189.94.4, stratum 2
Jan  8 04:05:01 pgfs ntpd[2608]: kernel time sync status change 2001

FYI, here is the output of md5sum /usr/sbin/ntp*. I think these are the
latest packages:

42415ef5eb851dabe9d06a67cf992d28  /usr/sbin/ntpd
c1d85ce075c70928b53692561fdc5277  /usr/sbin/ntpdate
79af988228131692520be14d25355a8e  /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian
d4ae7ee172f7ed340c4e1b406c04d16d  /usr/sbin/ntp-keygen
b7f7e4e0fb1d4e2aece718b18ae28b46  /usr/sbin/ntptime
7d4b58d1da97ba46ba8eeab08b345a44  /usr/sbin/ntp-wait

This is a brand new installation. The sequence of steps to reproduce
this are:

1. Install Maverick on a RAID 1 system. Separate / and /home partition.
2. Install Updates
3. Install graphics card hardware driver
4. Download ifenslave. Configure bonding. Set static IP address. 
5. Install NTP
