Why has my server stopped logging NTP?
Issue
-
Logging stopped, no logs about ntp services in /var/log/messages or ntp.log.
-
Why
ntpdservice is auto stopped with below error messages every time we start the ntpd service manually?
# service ntpd status
ntpd dead but pid file exists
# dmesg |grep ntpd
