It sounds like in the ntp_io.c module that the SIOCGIFCONF ioctl fails. It is not surprizing that this failed with xntpd as well as ntpd, as the code is almost identical and derived from the ntpd code. The daemon(s) are attempting to get a list of all the network interfaces on the system and their addresses. It seems like the host/OS that you're using either doesn't support this, or supports it in some different fashion. Look at xntpd/ntp_io.c for the gory details. Or, look at ntpd/ntp_sock.c for the same sort of thing. louie
