Dear All,

At booting, ntpdate fails to start, and also the following command fails:

# /sbin/service ntpdate start
ntpdate: Synchronizing with time server:                   [FAILED]
#

The log messages are:

Sep  7 12:50:50 localhost ntpdate[2908]: the NTP socket is in use, exiting

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Paul
