I have one 7.0-RELEASE machine running NTP with the following settings.

---------------- rc.conf -----------------
ntpd_enable="YES"
ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

---------------- ntp.conf ---------------
server ntp2.sp.se
server ntp.lth.se
server ntp1.sp.se
driftfile /etc/ntp/ntp.drift


on my second machine 7.1-BETA amd64, the same configuration produces this error

:/etc/rc.d/ntpd start

If I comment out the

ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

line.

ntp starts without any error.

Should I accept this or is something wrong?

Thanks
