I never had this problem until a few days ago when ntpq quit working.:
# ntpq -p Name or service not known
What service does it mean, "ntpq?"
I don't know what I did, if anything, to cause this? I made no changes intended for ntp.
Any help appreciated.
Does your /etc/hosts file include an entry for "localhost", and does your /etc/services file include these entries?:
ntp 123/tcp ntp 123/udp # Network Time Protocol
