I have a KVM setup. Host is 6.3. I have a bridged client running 5.9 Since upgrading to 5.9 I noticed that ntpd is being restarted every 12 hours.

Server is dhcp-4.1.1-31.0.1.P1.el6.centos.1.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.295.el6_3.10.x86_64 Client is dhclient-3.0.5-31.el5_8.1 Other than being noisy, it doesn't look like things are breaking, but it's definitely wrong :-) -- rgds Stephen _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
